I was testing a program which pops up a menu by pressing button 1 on a
command widget.  The popup widget was deliberately placed near the
command widget which activated it.  Program seems worked fine until I
repositioned the top level window to a different location by using
"Move" function under uwm.  The popup insists on appearing at the same
old location no matter where its ancestors are.  I traced the problem
with debugger, it turned out the toplevel widget x and y positions
were never updated after the uwm Move.  I have used XtTranslateCoords
in other application and didn't have this problem.  Debugger told me
the toplevel widget x,y position was always updated after the move in
these applications.  Help ?

TIA
