[comp.windows.x] background pixmap on an HP textedit widget

I'm trying to put a background pixmap on an HP textedit widget.
What I want to do is be able to display a background pixmap
on the top portion of the widget and be able to type characters
on the bottom part.  However everytime the widget gets mapped,
the background pixmap gets drawn first but is immediately 
blanked out (erased).  Has anybody succeeded in displaying a
background pixmap on a textedit widget?

I'm aware that using a combination of static raster and textedit widgets
will accomplish what I want.  In fact, that is what I ended up doing.
I'm just curious if an HP textedit widget could really have a
background pixmap.
