[comp.sys.dec] How to set decwindows icon-box geometry?

connie@psych.Stanford.EDU (Constance Stillinger) (08/03/90)

How do I customize the icon-box placement and size in decwindows
(UWS 2.2, dxsession, dxwm).  Can I set the relevant resources
in .Xdefaults, and if so, how?

(I will soon be solving all my decwindows problems by converting
to the mit distribution.)

Thanks!

Check out the description of Wm*default.geometry in the dxwm manual page.

You will loose quite a bit of functionality in doing this, but it's your
decision.
