2260.0. "Can one add an attached dialog box to a DECterm?" by SLED::NORMAN () Tue Feb 13 1990 09:55

I would like to add an attached dialog box to a DECterm. Has anyone
done this or does anyone have a clue as to how it might be accomplished?

It would also be nice if I could include the DECterm in a popup
dialog box.

The solution should be transportable to a RISC platform (3100).

The problem I am trying to solve involves mixing an old character cell
interface with some DECwindows goodies. I realize that the very idea
of this will cause strong stomachs to heave, but I am stuck with
this situation through no fault of my own.

I would like to add a sort of control panel (not unlike that used in
DECwindows notes) to the DECterm. The buttons in the control panel
would communicate with the application that controls the DECterm screen.

Any and all ideas are welcome.

It sounds like what you need is the DECterm widget.  See the discussion of this
in various notes in HANNAH::DECW$DISK:[PUBLIC]DECTERM.NOTE.
