I want to have a normal full screen performer window. Then with a button
somewhere or using one of the function keys, I want to popup a Motif
window. This window will only contain Motif widgets and no glDrawingArea
widgets. It will be used for controls of the Performer window. When done
it will pop down behind the Performer window or become unmanaged. I've
seen some examples on how to put a Performer window in a Motif
hierarchy, but how does one do this for a separate Motif window that is
secondary to the main display? Does it have to be managed from the APP
process? Can it be forked or put in it's own thread? If so, any gotchas?
Any advice along these lines would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Bill Volz
