Well, OK I can change that. I mostly meant the free Motif site vs the
paid version if there still is one. The mainstay of my reference
material is Oreily's vol6a.pdf and vol6b.pdf. Motif version 1.2 and
X11R5. My vol6b is dated 2001. In an age where it's impossible to
have an up to date
As you call the site the „retro Motif site“ I will not join it.
We use Motif in up-to-date production code. For us, Motif is a thing of the
present, not of the past.

OK, I created http://motif.1apps.com/index.html about an hour ago. I
need to contact 1apps support to find out how to enable phpBB. It
doesn't work (anymore) the way they describe in their FAQ at

Old story, the documentation
I have to admit I'd favor a modern forum to a mailing list. A couple
months ago somebody on another list told me I wasn't quoting properly,
well, I'm using Gmail through the web interface. It apparently
doesn't know how to do that. And since Motif is GUI it would be handy
to be able to upload

Alan,
I am a bit late in this thread, but I wanted to let you know that I still use
Motif in C applications today. It is very solid indeed, and as we do
touchscreen interfaces that cover the whole screen, not windowed desktop
applications, Motif is a good fit.
I am sure a mailing list could

GTK most certainly has a blank widget, just like all the other
toolkits. Don't forget, it started as the GIMP Toolkit, and that
required a lot of custom widgets.
Look at https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/3.12/GtkDrawingArea.html

Yes, I've played in Glade a little, wasn't crazy about it. And GTK3
looks awful, just the amount of text for a hello world program.
I wanted to use Motif but support for it is vanishing it seems.
Athena, I hate the scrollbars. What I want to work at is an SDR
(Software Defined Radio) program so

I've been using Swing for a couple of years now for GUI application
development. It definitely feels 'retro' in a lot of ways -- Java is
well on its way to being the
I am a bit confused if you're talking of modern toolkits, or older
ones, or in general. If in general, than this is untrue — QtCreator
allows you to design GUI pretty much like Borland Delphi or Visual
Studio. For GTK alike thing is Glade — it's not so good as "design"

Hmm, thank you but http://motif.ics.com/forum is now read-only. As is
http://www.motifdeveloper.com/. I wanted to use C, not Lua.
Maybe I'll have to bite the bullet and learn QT. I have this theory
that part of the reason there's so little modern software for Unix in
general is because there

I like playing around with the old stuff, because to me it seems
simpler and more efficient than GTK3 or QT. When it works. I'm still
trying to wrap my brain around mapping, managing, realizing widgets in
the right order.
I started out, put a notebook into a window, then a rowcol onto a page
of
15 matches
