[comp.windows.open-look] Running openw appl

dove@rocket.uucp (Webster &) (06/23/91)

I recently received the latest (3.0) release of island paint for
openwin (the motif one is in the mail...).

When I run it on X11R4/twm on a sparc or NCD17c/TWM the canvas comes
out black (it should be white) and it is unusable.

When I run it on X11R4/olwm (ver 2.0) or NCD17c/olwm, the program
behaves correctly, but the colortable swaps in and out as I enter and
leave the window, despite the fact that the first 10 or so colors in
the map (used by root and title-bars are unchanging and there seem to
be plenty of entries available.  This causes anoying flashes.

When I run it on openwin/olwm, it works correctly and it leaves the
colortable in when I move the cursor out (the desired behavior).

What can I do to get this to work properly with twm?

What can I do to prevent (apparently unnecessary) colortable swapping
under X11R4/olwm?

Please send mail as I rarely get the chance to read this list.

Thanks
