Motif 1.2 How to push and pop overlapping widgets

Submitted by Anonymous on Thu, 02/19/2004 - 01:31. General Questions
I have a bunch of bulletin board widgets that are stacked on top of each other and was wondering how i can push and pop the different widgets.

:( Xt is bad at stacking. There is a lot of support for moving and resizing widgets, but not much for restacking them. You can reach into the XtWindow() of each widget and use Xlib-level primitives for moving them around. Or use an XmNotebook or another tabbing widget to have a deck of widgets stacked up and allow the user to choose which one to display.
