2330.0. "Popup ADB is resizing itself on VMS" by EPIK::J_JOSEPH (Living in the Pasture) Wed Feb 21 1990 17:34

I have a popup attatched dialog box, whose only child is a window widget.
When I manage this widget, it always resizes itself to be one larger in the
y direction (on VMS 5.3).  This is not the case on UWS2.2, and I'm pretty sure
it wasn't the case on earlier versions of DECwindows under VMS.  I do not 
know why it's doing this, but it's damn annoying, as it is also causing the 
window to repaint.  For the sake of simplicity, I created a dialog box with
no children, and it did exactly the same thing.  I give it an initial width
and height in the UIL file, but it always increases its height by 1 when it
is managed.  Does anyone know what the deal is???

	Known bug (QAR'd a couple of times in DECWINDOWS-IFT). It's not
	expected to be fixed for XUI. They said it's something to do
	with interaction between the Intrinsics and the window manager.
