I just translated the coloredit example in Doug Young's book from HP to Athena widgets. My goals were to learn about using scroll bars and the wonderful new virtual colormap capabilities of X11r3. Unfortunately, it appears that virtual colormaps are uh, virtually useless (sorry, couldn't resist :-) under the DECwindows window manager. Whenever I use XInstallColormap(...,my_map) somebody (and I think its dxwm) goes and reinstalls the default colormap. Is there some way to tell dxwm to leave my map installed, or at least reinstall it when my application has focus? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Boolean orthogonal(char *my_opinions, char *employer_opinions) {return(TRUE);} INET: staatsvr@asd.wpafb.af.mil /// Honey, I UUCP: nap1!asd!staatsvr \\\/// dereferenced Vern Staats, ASD/SCED, WPAFB OH 45433, 513-255-2714 \XX/ the kids
