I've written an application under XView 2.0 which creates a dynamic colormap for a canvas window. When I run this under olwm it works fine but if I use twm I don't get my colors. It seems that twm doesn't install the colourmap. If I use a static colourmap then I get colours but not exactly the ones I want. If I install the colormap explicitly twm steps in and reinstalls the default. I also tried calling XSetWMColormapWindows and crashed twm. Is there a way to tell twm that a subwindow has a different colormap from the frame? Is there a patch or fix to twm? I would like the application to work under both twm and olwm since both are in use at this site. BTW. I'm running on Sun 3s, with SunOs 4.1. Thanks in advance.
