Switching Between Multiple XMANAGER Windows [message #17352]

I am trying to find a way to work between two different XMANAGER windows.
The first window controls some data visualization information. What I then
do is click on my draw widget in order to obtain more detailed information
about a single pixel. This pops up a new XMANAGER window that shows more
detailed information on this single pixel. However, I need to be able to
return to the first window to be able to do the same for a second pixel
without losing the second window. Can this be done. Any comments would be
appreciated.

Mike

I am also confused by the question, since this is
*exactly* the way widgets work with no special effort
at all. (I confess I am even more confused by some of
the answers poor Michael received, but that's another
story.)

Perhaps if you clarified what you have tried and what
didn't seem to work we could be more helpful. And a
clearer definition of what an "XMANAGER window" is
would also help.

Cheers,

David
