[comp.windows.x.motif] Help with defaults

nancie@hal.CSS.GOV (Nancie Matson) (04/09/91)

I'm having a strange problem with a simple program I
wrote that creates a ScrolledWindow with a Drawing
Area child.  Whenever I run the program, the widgets
are created, but my whole screen is colored grey,
and the widget appears on top of this background.
I don't specify a background color, but I also specifically
set the geometry to be 500x450+0+0.  Why does my
whole screen grey-out.

It's a real problem, because all my other windows are hidden,
and I have to remotely kill the process to get the
environment back.  I tried playing with the defaults,
but no luck.  I also looked at the demo programs
to see I missed anything, but I can't seem to find any
problems.

Has this ever happened to anyone?  Please e-mail
any suggestions as to how I can remedy this.

I'm using a SUN 3/60 with X11R4 patched up to 19.


Thanks
