166) What widget does the XmScrolledWindow use for its clip window?

[Last modified: Apr 98]

Answer: In Motif 1.2, if the XmScrolledWindow is using the XmAUTOMATIC
scrolling policy, it automatically creates an XmDrawingArea widget as its clip
window.  If you wish, you can retrieve the XmDrawingArea's widget ID by using
XtGetValues on the XmNclipWindow resource and then set resources on that
widget.  Some useful resources are XmNbackground and XmNresizeCallback.

Note that Motif 2.X uses a new XmClipWindow widget instead of the
XmDrawingArea.  Since XmClipWindow is subclassed from XmDrawingArea, the above
resources should still work.
