[comp.windows.x.motif] widget selection for the workWindow of a scrolled window.

wws@rruxc.uucp (Still Searching) (05/30/91)

I have a scrolled window which I want to behave something like a List widget.
However, the contents are not purely text.
Each item in the scrolling list looks something like this:

------   Tue May 21 23:38:53 EDT 1991			 000001
| *C |   Text Describing The Nature Of The Problem.
------

Each entry is a combination of a colored box and some text.
The only way I can think of to implement this is with either a Bulletin Board
which I attach stuff to, or a Drawing Area (which would take a lot more work
to re-create the behaviors of other widgets).
Any alternative solutions and suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Wayne Scott
