| If this is an icon you are creating for use with
the window manager then there are some limitations.
The sizes are 17x17 for the small icon, and 32x32 for
the large icon.

1518.2 | Not the icon for the window manger | MUHWSS::SCHMADERER | | Wed Oct 04 1989 11:55 | 11 |
| No, the customer wants to use the icons like the one in DECpaint and as a logo.
I told him the best way to implement this is to use the bitmap editor to create
the pixmaps and include them in the program or load them at runtime.
But the question remains. There must be an internel limitation of an icon under
uil. You can define and use icons with a size of 2^16 pixels. You can also
define icons larger than this but if you want to use them (in uil) the UIL-
Compiler says "Internal error. Please submit a spr".
So, what are the limitations of the UIL-Compiler and where are they documented?

1518.3 | "Dimension" is an unsigned 16 bit quantity | SDSVAX::SWEENEY | I was focused when focus wasnt cool | Thu Oct 05 1989 08:42 | 6 |
| Throughout all software components that are used in conjunction with
the MIT X Window System, the "Dimension" of a window or pixmap, its
width and height, is each an unsigned 16 bit quantity.
Perhaps UIL needs a more specific error message.

1518.4 | An Internal error is a bug... | JER::HARROW | Jerry Harrow, APA Core Services RTL | Thu Oct 05 1989 13:40 | 7 |
| You should submit a QAR. For a possibly faster response you might also want
to post the UIL code in the CLT::UIL-DRM conference. If you exceeded a limit
on the size of the icon then the message would have said that. The behavior is
a bug.
