I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on how to restore the clip
properly.
I have a gadget and I set the clip to the bounds of the gadget before
drawing the gadget, then reset the clip (WinResetClip). All works fine
except for the case where I get a modal dialog followed by another modal
dialog. (In case it matters the two dialogs are the "Receive into Address"
and "The data was not accepted" in the Exchange Manager.) The second modal
dialog is missing some of its background and title where it intersects with
the gadget on the main form. However, the alert icon and message are
displayed even though they cover my gadget.
The app receives a FrmUpdateForm between the two modal forms. If I comment
out the FrmDrawForm here, the second dialog draws OK.
Or, if I comment out the WinSetClip and WinResetClip in the gadget drawing
function, the second modal dialog draws OK (although the gadget draws
outside its bounds).
I am getting this problem on a 3.5 dr4 en color dbg ROM on POSE 3.4, but
haven't been able to recreate the two modal dialogs on other ROMs.
I have also tried using WinGetClip and WinSetClip instead of WinResetClip,
but it didn't help.
Any thoughts are welcome.

Here is the gadget draw code:
WinPushDrawState();
oldFont = FntSetFont(newFont);
WinSetTextColor(UIColorGetTableEntryIndex(UIFieldText));
WinSetForeColor(UIColorGetTableEntryIndex(UIFieldTextLines));
WinSetBackColor(UIColorGetTableEntryIndex(UIFieldBackground));
GuiGetFormObjectBounds(FrmGetActiveForm(), MessageViewContentGadget,
&bounds);
WinSetClip(&bounds);
WinEraseRectangle(&bounds, 0);
// Draw some stuff here.
WinResetClip();
FntSetFont(oldFont);
WinPopDrawState();
