Widget Weirdness [message #65670]

Folks,

I just ran into this problem on my Linux machine. I wonder
if someone can help me test. I ran my Coyote program
PickColorName:

IDL> c = pickcolorname()

This puts a widget up in the center of the display. I
then move it off to the side and pick a color. As soon
as I do, the widget jumps back to the center of the
display. This is decidedly NOT what it is suppose to do!

I've traced the program (believe it or not) to a command
in which I am changing the text on a label widget. I have
confirmed this behaviour with an entirely different program.
It, too, jumps if I try to change a widget label's text.

Is this a function of my window manager (SUSE 10.? and
KDE 3.5, I believe), or is this a UNIX (possibly Mac)
problem in general? If it is a general bug, I would
like to report it.

Thanks,

David
