Hey there. Thank you, I want to use the motif version too because a lot of the fancy extensions only work in motif, unfortunately I tried it out and ran into an issue where suppressing graphical updates does not work and causes the user interface to misbehave because my software scheme mosaic opens and closes a lot of sounds. The gtk version seems fine on this task but the motif versions malfunctions and hangs. I'm looking for a work around. I thought I would send this message to the list because my follow-ups with Bill were off list.
