[comp.windows.x.motif] Number-entry widgets?

quiroz@cs.rochester.edu (Cesar Quiroz) (02/28/91)

Are there publically-available widgets (probably descendants of
XmText?) designed to accept numeric data?  Specifically, I am
thinking of something that would accept strings from the user, parse
them according to resource-specifyable defaults (precision, type,
range?, units?...).  I am getting bored of dealing with this
ad-hack.

Is it a Bad Idea to call XmMainWindowSetAreas more than one 
time in a program?
I am passing it the same widgets each time (except that the 
first time the menu bar is NULL). I am having fun with corrupted 
memory and I am grasping at straws.  I have figgered out that 
calling it with different args is definitely a no-no.
Thanks for the input
