We have tried Gavin from sgi.com 's background code. It produces a pretty,
gourod-shaded screen, but one loses the menu bars, tool and demo icons, and
so on. One can get the normal window bars back by calling a new shell, but
the tool icon never does come back well without making a mess. Is there
a way I can modify the code to redraw the things I need on my screen?
Thanks,

All the menus and icons are there. However, it doesn't do anything on our Personal Iris's. I haven't had time to look at the code yet, anybody have any ideas? -- Mike York Boeing Computer Services, Renton, Washington (206) 234-7724 uw-beaver!ssc-vax!voodoo!zombie
