   I used DwtMainWindow to create a main window widget which seemed to
work fine.  I also defined menu widgets as children of the main
window widget.  I also defined a widget for drawing (lines, rectangles
etc.) by using the DwtWindow call.  I get the screen, display, and
window from the XtScreen, XtDisplay, and XtWindow calls using
the widget I defined for drawing as the argument for these calls.
When I then use these returned values to XDrawLine the line will not
appear on the display.
   Can anyone help me with this? Example code would be most helpful.
