Couple of questions for DECwindows V3 users/gurus 1: Can I get the automati session startup stuff to specify which screen I would like the application to start on? i'd like to have some of my auto-start apps go on screen 0, and some on screen 1 (this was not possible in the old DECwindows) 2: I can't seem to find the "prompt for screen number" dialog so that when I start an application, it asks me which screen to put the display on. (this was possible on the old DECwindows and is the only thing that is keeping me from installing DECW V3 on my "production" environment) -bill

Please enter qars on these so they will get addressed. Couple of questions for DECwindows V3 users/gurus 1: Can I get the automati session startup stuff to specify which screen I would like the application to start on? i'd like to have some of my auto-start apps go on screen 0, and some on screen 1 (this was not possible in the old DECwindows) qar it I am not sure how hard this is to do. 2: I can't seem to find the "prompt for screen number" dialog so that when I start an application, it asks me which screen to put the display on. (this was possible on the old DECwindows and is the only thing that is keeping me from installing DECW V3 on my "production" environment) This unfortunately didn't get fixed for ift. There is a Screen... dialog box and it can be added to the options menu thru the menus dialog box and it will allow you to start all the apps except decterm(another bug) on the 2nd head but the prompt function isn't working yet. -bill | |||||
