Frame hints are only meaningful to classes descended from FXFrame. 
Neither FXList nor FXTreeList is derived from FXFrame, so they are 
unaffected by any frame hints that you might pass into their constructors.

If you want either of these widgets to appear in, say, a raised frame, 
the solution is to create a frame widget of some kind, e.g.

     listFrame = FXVerticalFrame.new(p,
         FRAME_RAISED|FRAME_THICK)

and then make the list as a child of that frame:

     list = FXList.new(listFrame, 5, nil, 0,
         LIST_SINGLESELECT|LAYOUT_FILL_X|LAYOUT_FILL_Y)

Hope this helps,
