Hi, i have this problem
I want to have a single togglebutton with the style specified in the following Motifzone tip

>The resource file fragment to include looks like
>! Translations for new style toolbar buttons (and toggles).
>*toolbar*XmPushButton.baseTranslations #override

> CustomShadows(on) Arm()

> CustomShadows(on) Enter()

> CustomShadows(off) Leave()

> MapCheck()
>*toolbar*XmToggleButton.baseTranslations #override

> CustomShadows(on) Arm()

> Select() Disarm() CustomShadows(check)

> CustomShadows(on) Enter()

> CustomShadows(off) Leave()

> MapCheck()
>In addition, make a call to XtAppAddActions with a table >containing this data, to map the strings mentioned in the >translations table to the functions used above
> static XtActionsRec actions[] = {
> {"CustomShadows", shadowAC},
> {"MapCheck", mapAC}
> };

I want do it without resource specification (i cannot do it)
In my app i write the following

char toggleBaseTranslations[] =
"#override

CustomShadows(on) Arm()

Select() Disarm() CustomShadows(check)

CustomShadows(on) Enter()

CustomShadows(off) Leave()

MapCheck()";
XtActionsRec actions[] = {
{"CustomShadows", shadowAC},
{"MapCheck", mapAC}
};
toggleBtn_xlations = XtParseTranslationTable(toggleBaseTranslations);
XtAddActions (actions, XtNumber (actions));
.....
w=XtVaCreateManagedWidget(name,
xmToggleButtonWidgetClass, parent_w,
NULL);

XtOverrideTranslations (w, toggleBtn_xlations);
....

When i execute my program i have the following
Warning translation table syntax error Unknown modifier name CustomShadows
Warning ... found while parsing ` CustomShadows(on) Arm()`
Warning translation table syntax error Unknown modifier name CustomShadows
Warning ... found while parsing ` CustomShadows(on) Enter()`
Warning translation table syntax error Unknown modifier name CustomShadows

Warning ... found while parsing ` CustomShadows(on) Enter()`
Warning translation table syntax error Unknown modifier name CustomShadows
Warning ... found while parsing ` CustomShadows(off) Leave()`
Warning translation table syntax error Unknown modifier name MapCheck
Warning ... found while parsing ` MapCheck()`

How i can override without resource file the base translation of
a widget? I make some errors in the translation syntax? (I copy it from motifzone)...
Thank you for help!
