Brian,

1) Remember Lithium (the current 'stable' release) and the widgets have a few problems.
2) For RedHat9.0 the xwt.linux.gz dated 5/14/2003 from http://dist.xwt.org seems mostly fine. For Windows xwt-0281.exe seems the most stable using the sampler-0.5pre3 widgets.
3) If you don't have a main.xwt like the other samples, etc. you need to apply a template theme for the widgets to work right.
so:
<xwt>
<static>
xwt.theme( "xwt.theme", "org.xwt.theme.monopoly" );
</static>
...

Hello,

I am just getting started with XWT and having some trouble.

First off, I am trying to run the samplers of the various widget sets.
I can't say that I've had much luck.
After downloading the xwt binary I run
./xwt-xyz sampler-0.5preX.xwar

Can someone tell me the correct current combination between the xwt binary and the widget to write XWT apps and use the widget library ? I have been trying to write my own little XWT app. After downloading a sampler widget xwar and unpacking it in a special directory, I wrote my own little simple xwt demo:
<xwt>
<import name="xwt.widget" />
<template thisbox="frame" width="220" height="260" color="white">
<box orient="vertical" width="200" height="250" >
<group id="radios" text="Radio Buttons">
<radio id="r1" label="X1" value="Option 1" />
<radio id="r2" label="X3" value="Option 2" />
<radio id="r3" label="X2" value="Option 3" />
</group>
<group id="buttons">
<button id="b1" text="test button 1" counter="0" label="Button One" />
<button id="b2" text="test button 2" counter="0" label="Button Two" /> <button id="b3" text="test button 3" counter="0" label="Button Three" />
</group>

</box>
</template>
</xwt>

However, I never actually see the buttons! This may have something to do with the incompatability between the widget sets and the xwt binaries.

Thanks for your help!
Brian
