What do these SetArgs have to do with dehighlighting a selection? Don't you just want XmListDeselect[AllItems/ Item/Pos]? Or is the problem the initial one of putting things into the list at all? In that case I'd use XmListAddItem[Unselected], I'm not sure how the resource equivalents work. (Motif has a bunch of cases where a function seems to do exactly the same thing as a resource. I have no idea why, but I tend to go with the function on the assumption that someone created it for a reason.)

Try XmListDeselectPos or XmListDeselectItem.
This works fine for me.

Hello motif world,
I asked this question a while ago and got no answers. So! Here it goes
again...
I am creating a selection box widget with a list of items. Once a single
item selection has been made, I want to be able to "de-highlight" that
selection. I've tried to reset the following attributes of the selection
box without any luck:
XtSetArg (Args[n], XmNlistItems, line_item); n++;
XtSetArg (Args[n], XmNlistItemCount, number_of_items); n++;
XtSetValues(stream_selection_box, Args, n);
Does anyone have any suggestions?
