Motif: scale widget Problem

Hello!

First of all, I am new to C++.

The problem with the scale widget is that I get a segmentation fault when I
want to create it with more than zero decimal numbers.

beta_scale_ = XtVaCreateManag edWidget("betas cale",
xmScaleWidgetCl ass, form_left,
XmNtitleString, title,
XmNorientation, XmHORIZONTAL,
XmNminimum, 1,
XmNmaximum, 10000,
XmNdecimalPoint s, 2,
XmNshowValue, True,
XmNvalue, 100,
XmNwidth, SCALE_WIDTH,
XmNheight, SCALE_HEIGHT,
NULL);

It worked that way in C, but in C++ it only works with XmNdecimalPoint s set
to 0.

Thanks,
Daniel

Your problem while shows up in C++ really has nothing to do with C++
but rather with Motif and its widgets.

You need to ask about it in a newsgroup dedicated to Motif. This NG only
deals with C++ _language_ issues, and yours isn't one of them.

Hello, Sorry to be bringing up what seems to be a somewhat beaten up topic... This is what I wanted to do: Create a _simple_ text editor widget which supports VI(M) style keybindings but works with arbitrary fonts/unicode characters. Vi(m) unfortunately, does not support Devanagari (or proportional fonts) and it looks like it will take quite some time for these things to work. As

I'll soon start development of a specialized small app and need to choose GUI for it.

Hi I'm trying to make a zooming in/out slider, but I want to make it re-center when I let go of the mouse button on it -- i.e. it starts with a value of 1 (in the center of the slider), then the user can drag it to the right or left, while it does UPDATE_CONTINUOUS, but when the user lets go, I want it to go back to 1 (its center value) again. So, basically, my question is: Is it possible to make a scale widget with UPDATE_CONTINUOUS...

Some time ago I wrote a little program in Tcl/Tk that took the values from 3 sliders and performed a calculation using these values. The calculation was of course automatically repeated each time a slider was moved. It is proving most difficult in Python. How do I pass the .get() values to my calculating function? Do I use the command option for each slider? e.g command = Calc(a.get()). Obviously not cos it doesn't work. I am not a...

Hi, I'm looking for a Scale like Tkinter widget that has two sliders, so that the user can select both the upper and lower bound of some dataset. Much like the widgets used in spotfire: http://wiserways.com/images/2004-02-10/intro_spotfire.jpg (see the widgets on the right of the picture) Thanks in advance!
