[comp.windows.x] XView vs. NCD X-Terminals - reversed colors

x-window@uni-paderborn.de (X-Window Betreuung) (04/05/91)

We have some problems running XView-applications on our monochrome
NCD-Terminals. Parts of the windows come out in reversed colours, e.g.
the dial-plate of clock is black, the day-display in xcalentool has
black entry-lines and so on. It is not a big problem but it is
annoying, especially with filemgr, where a files icon doesn't get
reversed correctly when it is clicked. 

I tried to change background- and foreground-color with the
commandline options -fg black -bg white, with -foreground black
-background white and with -reverse, but this doesn't affect the
application in any way. This doesn't work on our sun's either. So I
believe it is not a problem of the NCD-terminal but an XView bug.
(btw., on our colour-NCD all works fine).

Anyone out there who knows a solution (or at least an explanation)?

Greetings, Swen
