3705.0. "Lost my windows???" by GRAMPS::FORTIER (John Fortier) Wed Nov 21 1990 09:56

    
       I am having a problem which I cannot find any reference to in
    any notes file, and I've looked. The problem is this, I am running 
    VMS V5.4 and the new DECwindows Motif kit, when I try and get a 
    window to shrink to an icon the window shrinks and goes away??? No
    Icon appears and it just gone. I have run autogen a couple of times
    to see if I had anything set wrong, no help. I also only get one
    DECterm started when I login. I have 2 setup to  autostart.
       Any ideas what I have done wrong???

	See my reply in VMSNOTES.  Please don't post in both places.  This is
  the right place for it.

    Danny,
       If you'd check you would see that I have already deleted the note
    out of the field test notes file. Now since this is the right place,
    can anybody help so that I know if I should submit a QAR or not?

    re .2:  You forgot VMSNOTES, which was what Danny was referring to.
    I'll refrain from further comments on the practice of cross-posting.

3705.4Still not workingGRAMPS::FORTIERJohn FortierTue Nov 27 1990 07:2411
       Upgraded to VMS V5.4-1 and rebooted last night. Same problem.
    When I use the decoration in upper right-hand corner to shrink 
    to an icon, the window shrinks and dies. 
       I am sure that this is cockpit error, but from where I am 
    sitting, in the cockpit, I can't see what I'm doing wrong. Does
    anybody have any ideas what I should be checking???

    	Thanks,
