Hi,

I'm trying to write a multi-window application. I'm using a dialog 
shell to create the second window but I'm having a problem positioning
the dialog shell on the screen. The dialog shell is a child of the
toplevel but it will not take x and y coordinates on the screen.

Does anyone know how to position a dialog on the screen?
Do I have to use two toplevels?

I'm using Motif 1.0 on an IBM RS/6000.

Any help would be appreciated.

Brian
