2146.0. "Prb with 100 DPI fonts and Customize Keyboard window" by CSC32::J_RABOIN (PAN-AM, Negate that Gate!) Thu Jan 25 1990 19:08

Anybody see this problem with 100 DPI Fonts.

When you pull down the CUSTOMIZE KEYBOARD window you see that the
resizing screen feature in the upper right hand corner is grayed
out meaning unusable feature.  Next problem with this window is
that the Widgets "OK","APPLY",and "CANCEL" are not in the window
seem to go below the bottom of the window.  Because of this there
is no way to exit the window, even the return key does nothing.
He has the new 16" VR297-DA monitor.

Example of Customer problem:	Take note that the "OK","APPLY", and "CANCEL"
				push button widgets do not event appear on
				the screen, making the window useless and 
				forcing the user to either restart DECwindows
				if he knows how, or reboot the system.

    PLEASE enter a QAR on this problem.  If you just ask 'has anyone else
    seen this problem,' the problem doesn't get tracked automatically.  You
    must enter a QAR, which we can then track.

	If the "OK" button is present (i.e., would be there
	if the window could be resized larger) and is the
	default button, then you should be able to remove
	the window by giving it the input focus and pressing
	the "Return" key.

2146.3Impossible to leave windowCSC32::J_RABOINPAN-AM, Negate that Gate!Tue Feb 06 1990 18:5210
RE:.-1

Dan,
	It is impossible to leave that window even by pressing the
	return key because the OK button is not in the window, looks
	like it is below the window maybe (kinda like the window is
	too small), and when that occurs the OK, CANCEL, APPLY buttons
	are no longer widgets, they act more like gadgets.
