Also, if I put the "XtPopup(popup)" call after the > XtRealizeWidget(topLevelShell) call, I don't even get the popup shell. Calling XtPopup before realizing the parent of the popup works fine here. But you have the wrong number of arguments to XtPopup, and your popup shell type was given as shellWidgetClass, which is an internal class and should not be instantiated. Use transientShellWidgetClass instead. Read chapters 4 "Shell Widgets" and 5 "Pop-up Widgets" in "X Toolkit Intrinsics" Donna Converse converse@expo.lcs.mit.edu
