613.0. "Console window placement on login screen" by RHETT::BURDEN (A bear in his natural habitat) Tue Mar 04 1997 18:41
A customer has found a strange behavior with the console window at the CDE
login screen. We can reproduce it here as well. In the
sys$manager:DECW$STARTAPPS.COM file, he modified these two lines:
$ decw$console_selection == "WINDOW"
$ decw$console_geometry == "+0+0"
After he restarted the window manager, the console window flashed in the upper
left corner of the screen then went away as the login box came up. When he
logged in, the console window came back to the upper left.
If he set the decw$console_geometry to be "+0-0" (lower left) or "-0-0"
(lower left), it stays on the screen when the login box id present. If
it's set to "+0+0" (upper left) or "-0+0" (upper right), it does what
I described in the paragraph above.
Is this a bug? Is there any quick away around it or should we elevate it?
Thanks
Dave
