[comp.windows.x] Create/using colormap

jim@tse.uucp (Jim Dabir X720) (08/14/90)

I am trying to create a colormap to be used by my application, since most of
the color cells in the default colormap is used up by the time my application
is started.  I created the colormap and used XSetWindowColormap to install it.
No problem! However, my program creates RowColumn shells, and when this happens,
it seems that the default colormap is used again.  As soon as I unmanage 
the RowColumn shell, the newly created colormap comes in effect...

My question is how can I make my colormap be used by all the shells that could
be created under my application?

I would appreciate anyone's help in this...thanx
