3000.0. "Multiple Windows ?" by BAHTAT::BELL (SWAS Leeds 845 2214) Wed Jun 27 1990 09:15

    Can anyone answer this 'Pre-Sales' enquiry.
    
    1)	Is it possible for an X application to open a number of different
    windows on the same display at initialisation.
    
    2) If 1) is possible is it then possible for the application to display
    data to these various windows and when making the update force that
    particular window to the front of the display.
    
    My customer is designing a Network Management application and would
    like to incorporate the above functionality in the design. 
    
    N.B. They have only recently got workstations and haven't been on any
    DECwindows training courses yet.

    The answer to both questions is "yes".  Not only that, but the
    functionality you are asking for is not terribly difficult.  Encourage
    your customer to attend the training.
