2705.0. "The colour (color) of the Icon" by GYPSC::BINGER (Explode an acronym) Thu May 03 1990 10:45

      The colour (color)  of the Icon.

      Is there a simple way for a non Decwindows programmer to change the
      colour of the Icon. I have changed the colours of the screens to suit
      the application running. If I can control my Icon colour I will then be
      able to find the applications quickly.

    There doesn't seem to be any way to set the icon colors to be
    independent of the foreground/background colors.

      Thanks Steve,
      I have understood you correctly... the icon colour cannot take up the
      colour of the window that it represents.

    This won't help you right away, but Motif will let you do this, when
    it becomes available.
