[comp.windows.x.motif] Accessing Mwm resizeBorderWidth resource

watson@dev1f.mdcbbs.com (09/12/90)

We are using a control panel in our XmMainWindow which contains several
XmFormDialogs.  These form dialogs represent tool palettes which may be moved
onto the work area, if the user desires.

Everything is working fine, but there is a small problem with layout due to 
the Mwm resizeBorderWidth resource, which users may set in their xdefaults 
file.  We wrote C code to do the layout at widget creation time, and it
looks great when the resource is at its default value, which is 10, but 
the form dialogs no longer are arranged neatly within the control panel 
if the mwm resource is changed.

Does anyone know of a way to access the Mwm resizeBorderWidth resource at
runtime?  I've read over the Motif Mwm documentation several times, but am
stymied.

Thanks,
