X and Y coordinates become default(0) after XtManageChildren

Hello
I have a small problem regarding a form and two widgets attached on it. So mainly, I want to display this two widgets in that form on a timer callback:
XtAppAddTimeOut(app_context,
(unsigned long) 3000, /* milliseconds */
display_widgets,
client_data) ;
Practically, I'm seting XtManageChildren for each of this widget (which is a XmText, btw) in display_widgets function, which comes at 3 seconds. In this function I have an if statement for letting me display the widgets (XtManageChildren) and on the next call of this function, I'm doing XtUnmanageChildren (for disappear). My problem is that I'm setting for each of these two widgets a different X and Y values. For the first widgt it's ok, but for the second widget, after it does XtManageChildren, the XmNx and XmNy values become default (0 and 0). Why it doesn't let me specify the wanted values for X and Y coordinates?
Btw, I'm a newbie :)
Help me please !!
