Hi,

I would like to add scrollbars to the value widget in the Dialog
widget of the Athena Widgets.  Somehow it doesn't work.  I tried using
-xrm "*Dialog.value.scrollHorizontal: always" and I get the error:

Warning: Text Widget (value):
 Horizontal scrolling not allowed with width resize.
 Horizontal scrolling has been DEACTIVATED..

So I tried -xrm "*Dialog.value.scrollVertical: always" and I get the error:

Warning: Text Widget (value):
 Vertical scrolling not allowed with height resize.
 Vertical scrolling has been DEACTIVATED..

Is it possible to set scrollbars in the value widget of the Dialog
Widget?  Alternatively, is it possible to have the value widget resize
the Dialog Widget as the user enters text beyond the right edge?

(If none of the above is possible, then I'll just make my own dialog
widget with a form widget) 8-(
