SJT> Maybe a lesstif 0.89 bug? No, I think I have found my problem though. I did retest with widgets=athena and though I thought it had gotten rid of the progress bar orphans, in reality it did not. I realized I had not followed my recipe exactly. I had just run xemacs, not xemacs -vanilla. Using -vanilla, I do get the progress bar orphans, just the athena versions. so.... I did a cvs diff and found that windows.c & glyphs.c had some differences vs the current cvs. In particular, code mentioning widget caching and broken subwindows. I moved those two files out of the way, and cvs updated, and recompiled. I retested 3 times and I cannot repeat the problem. So it looks like I had some old remnants of some previously hand applied patches. I have also recompiled with the motif (lesstif ) widgets and can report that they do not produce any orphans either. So, looks like a dirty src tree on my part, that is now clean. Problem solved. (hopefully no new ones started :-) ) Jeff
