[comp.windows.open-look] OL/Sunview colour flashing

walter@lsican.uucp (Walter Brooks) (06/04/91)

I am using Open Windows 2.0 on a colour SUN3/60. When I bring up a SUNVIEW
application that uses colour, every time I move the cursor into that
application the other colours on the screen change (colour flash).

What I want to do is reserve the colours that my most common SUNVIEW
applications use, so that they will not conflict with the Open Windows
colours. I plan on using 'reservecolors' but to do that I need to know
the colours the are being used.

Does anyone know a way to determine which colours are being used by an
application?

Note: I am already using the -svmono option to reservecolors, but that
only makes sure that black and white don't flash.
