Hi All! I am having a little problem with the text widgets. What I want it to do is when the text receives focus the cursor should be visible. Then after the user enters something and hits a carriage return the cursor should disappear. The first thing I did was in the text widget's activate callback I set the cursorPositionVisible to false. This did make the cursor disappear, but the next time I would go into the text the cursor did not reappear. I then tried setting autoShowCursorPosition to false and adding a focus callback that set cursorPositionVisible to true. This did not change the above behavior. I put a print statement it the focus callback to make sure that it is called and I found that it was not. Has anybody had this problem? The widget tree is generally the following: XmMainWindow | XmForm | XmBulletinBoard | XmText We are currently using INTERACTIVE UNIX v 2.2, X11R3, and Motif 1.0. We are soon to be using MetroX which is X11R4 and Motif 1.1. Is this problem fixed in Motif 1.1? Any help is greatly appreciated!
