FileSelectionDialog

okay, I know this has probably been asked many times but I can`t seem to find a suitable answer anywhere. I have Sun Visual-builder generated code (in C++) that creates a file selection dialog box and it has the problem where the Directories and Files panes resize depending on the length of the directory name (or something like that). I would like to keep those panes of fixed size. I have tried poking around in all the resources in visual builder to no avail and I`ve tried setting random things` XmNresizePolicy to XmRESIZE_NONE in the generated code but I haven`t gotten that to work... then again, my grasp on arglists and XtSetArgs isn`t so hot. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much!

I think you`re seeing an artifact of special CDE behavior, which is in the Motif 1.2 version of the software on your system. There is some special flag to turn this off. It`s not a standard resource of the widget. Perhaps someone else knows the magic resource string.
