Subject: Motif Form widget question
Message-Id: <1990Jun1.205443.5062@Solbourne.COM>
Sender: convex!expo.lcs.mit.edu!xpert-request
To: xpert@expo.lcs.mit.edu

I'm trying to learn this Motif thing and I'm cutting my teeth on
the Form widget.  I want to create a Form widget and have three 
children inside like this

	+---------+
	|    A    |
	+---------+
	|    B    |
	+---------+
	|    C    |
	+---------+

If I create the children in the order A,B,C and attach B to A and C to B,
everything works fine.  If I create them in the order C,B,A and attach B
to C and A to B, then the Form widget does not appear to size properly
to hold all the children.  All I see is C unless I resize the thing.

Is this a "feature" of the form widget that I haven't read about
someplace?  Does the Form widget size itself to fit the child with the
largest lower right corner coordinates?  I don't have Motif source so
I can't UTSL.

Thanks,
Tom LaStrange
