The Interfacers have a broad range of Motif development experience.
We are ready to step in and help you whether you are creating X applications
using straight C, C++, or even a mixture with the inclusion
of a GUI builder.
xcolorswish
This small demonstration of Motif and X Window application programming
illustrates several skills. Of particular interest, are Drag and Drop, Mouse Handling
and Color Manipulation.
The demonstration below shows two separate applications that interact by allowing
the user to
"drag and drop" color information between the windows.
The window titled 'draw' is a slightly modified version of an application
from the book "The X Window System, Programming and Applications with Xt/OSF Motif Edition"
by Douglas Young.
Demonstration
A sample application called
xcolorswish
is available for examination.
It illustrates Mouse Handling, Color Manipulation and
Drag&Drop.
