2944.0. "4-plane black/white and 4-plane color difference?" by SX4GTO::TZAY (Grace Tzay, 415/691-4792, UCS-4 ) Fri Jun 15 1990 15:32

    Hi all,
    
    What is the difference between 4-plane black and white monitor and
    a 4-plane color monitor.  Is 4-plane black and white monitor an
    intensity machine ?  I have a 4-plane color and I wondering if
    I could use  it to test my software and would it behave the same on
    a 4-plane black and white ?
    
    Regard, Grace

If you have a 4-plane color system on VMS, you can use it to simulate a 4-plane
GrayScale system by editing (or creating) in SYS$MANAGER: the file
DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.COM.  Add the line

$decw$color = "F"

Then restart DECwindows (@SYS$MANAGER:DECW$STARTUP RESTART)
