- I have a mixed-mode window that takes several seconds to draw.
- This window has a pulldown menu that naturally overlaps the
- mixed-mode drawing area. When the menu selection is finished
- the menu pop-down causes an expose event which results in a long
- redraw wait.
-
- Is there any way to put the Motif graphics (or at least the pulldown
- menu graphics) in another group of bitplanes, such as the overlay
- bitplanes? Any other options since the Xsgi doesn't support backingstore?
-
- Sorry if this is a FAQ, I must have missed the earlier posting(s).
- Thanks in advance.
