[comp.windows.x.motif] Widget doesn't appear unless I resize window

Help a lazy proegrammer figure out what is going wrong!

mainwindow
	menubar
	form
		(drawing area
		form
			row column
			(toggle button)*)*

Basically I have a mainwindow with a form in it, and inside the form I
put a drawing area for drawing graphs, and a little control panel for
options. You can switch between graphs (only one pair of widgets are
mapped at a time). The problem is that every time I create a drawing
area/control panel pair, the control panel doesn't appear until I
resize the window. After that, it appears even if I map and unmap the
pair. Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks in advance,
