*** NOVICE ALERT *** I have just started learning Motif and have the following question: I understand that an XmLabel widget has its own XmLabel resource set which is not inherited from any parent. So, if I create a label widget, it will have its own copy of its resource set. Two questions: 1) How can I specify that I want all subsequent Label widgets to have a particular font (fontList resource)? Do I have to specify this everytime I create a Label widget? I understand that I can use an .Xdefaults file to specify this for my application but I am now curious as to how this can be achieved from within my application. 2) How can I query what the current default value for the XmNfontList resource for a Label Widget will be without first creating it?
