Greetings!
I have an application that requires a simulation clock (hh:mm:ss) to
be in one of my windows. I would like to have the clock in the
top right hand corner of the window and remain in the top right hand
corner whenever the window is resized. The window (widget)that the clock
is in is a BulletinBoardDialog, so I thought that I could have the
BulletinBoardDialog "control" (UIL) a Form and then have the Form
"control" the RowColumn that contains my clock labels. With this
layout I was going to attach the RowColumn to the top right of the
Form using XmNrightAttachment = XmATTACH_FORM and
XmNtopAttachment = XmATTACH_FORM
in the UIL file.
When I did this the attachment did not work. I tried the same
method inside the MainWindow instead of the BulletinBoardDialog
and it works great.
Why did the Form not behave as I expected in the BBD?
Do I need to set a different resources for a Form in a BBD?
Does a Form work with a DialogShell parent?
I am using Interactive's X11R3 and Motif 1.0 on an AT&T 386 with
386/ix.
Thanks in advance for any help.
