Hi,

I am developing a software using Motif 1.0 under SCO Unix 5.3.2 (ODT 1.?).

Following is the part of code i am talking about..

....
....
main_win = XmCreateMainWindow( parent, TITLE, args, argcount) ;

argcount = 0 ;
prompt_win = XmCreatePromptDialog( main_win, PROMPT, args, argcount) ;

argcount = 0 ;
XtSetArg( args[argcount], XmNx, X_POS ) ; argcount++ ;
XtSetArg( args[argcount], XmNy, Y_POS ) ; argcount++ ;
XtSetValues( XtParent(prompt_win), args, argcount) ;

XtManageChild( prompt_win) ;
XtManageChild( main_win) ;

....
...

When i execute this, the prompt window always comes at the 0,0 location.
Changing X_POS and Y_POS values also does not have any effect.

Is there any way out of this or do i have to live with it?

Thanks
Vijay. (vijay@gateway.iitb.ernet.in)
