> I understand how to create FRAMEs, CANVAS's, etc., but I don't want to > CREATE any windows at all, just use the current window. You seem to be intent upon circumventing the regular window system. Why is it so important to not create any windows? What kind of special popups are you creating that cannot use the normal menu/window system? You should look into obtaining and using a blanket window, described in the Sun View Systems Guide. This still won't let you resize the underlying window. I think that may be forbidden, since that window is owned by another process, and you are, in effect, asking to poke into its data space to modify its window parameters.
