Ts'o) Organization: X Consortium, MIT Laboratory for Computer Science Lines: 21 I'm writing an application using Xaw, and have the following entry in its resource file: *chartForm*fromHoriz: buttonBox Which specifies that chartForm and every descendent of chartForm should have it's fromHoriz constraint resource value set to buttonBox. chartForm is a Form widget and buttonBox is a Box widget. Both of these widgets are children of topForm, a Form widget. But when I start the program, I get: Warning: Cannot convert string "buttonBox" to type Widget Try specifying it just for chartForm, not it's children *chartForm.fromHoriz: buttonBox Donna Converse
