When I run, I get a choice requester immediately after my form has been
display. It says "XForms Error: bad allignment request" and I have the
option to click on Continue, Exit, or Hide errors.

This is simply a text objext (as I am trying to reproduce you're readout
function). The name of the object is called out. The lable allignment is
left inside (as it defaults to).

It only 'crashes' when I have a text object.. no matter where on my form I
place it.. no other object with a lable creates this error.

I am not doing anything special because I can't even get into the form
before I get the error message.

Unfortunally the only debugger I have is dbx (pre gdb) and she returns a
sucesfull exit when I click on exit. I can't put a breakpoint in at the
moment..

my friend is doing a similar project as I and he has the same problems
when he has any text object.
My system is a Sun Ultra30 running Solaris
my gfx.c file produced by formdesigner.

fdui->out = obj = fl_add_text(FL_NORMAL_TEXT,50,470,80,40,"Text");
fl_set_object_lalign(obj,FL_ALIGN_LEFT|FL_ALIGN_INSIDE);
fl_end_form();
(out is the name I specified for this text object in form designer.)
