I have 3 Core widgets, each of which holds a digitized color image. I would like to display all 3 widgets, plus some text, within a viewport widget. The viewport widget is scrollable. When I created the viewport widget, I gave it an initial size, but since the size may have changed since then, how do I know the size of the viewport so that I can know where to place the Core widgets? I have been planning to use XtSetArg to set XtNx and XtNy which I've read are the x and y positions to place the widget within its parent, which in this case is the viewport. If it makes any difference, the viewport widget is part of a vpaned widget. Am I going about this correctly? On a slightly different topic, I complained to the net earlier about not being able to use XtNwidth to set the width of one of my viewport widgets which is within a form widget. Someone responded to me that there was a bug in R2, but that that has been fixed in R3. Well, I *am* using R3, so I guess the bug is still there! carol -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Livermore Lab (chapman@lll-crg.llnl.gov or chapman@lll-lcc.llnl.gov) P.O.
