3708.1 | I do this... | MANTA::SIMON | SSB is boring...Give me FT kits!! | Thu Nov 22 1990 05:13 | 15 |

There is a VUE$XUI_WM.COM in VUE$LIBRARY which will bring up what looks like
DECwindows v2.1.
I have added this to my Applications pull-down.
I don't know if products that don't work under v3, eg, VPA, will work under this
as I haven't tried it.
If you have any success running non-v3 apps under this reply here as I would be
interested.
Simon.
P.S. Don't forget to kill the mwm first :-)

3708.2 | Need to back out of MOTIF | OLHEAP::JFISCHER | ya-hafta-have-a-habitat | Mon Nov 26 1990 09:56 | 13 |
| Thanks for the suggestion regarding VUE$LIBRARY:VUE$XUI_WM.COM ... you're right,
it does look a lot like the DECWINDOWS window manager. I tried it, but it
didn't fix my problem. I guess I need to back out of the MOTIF environment
(at least until more LP's are fully MOTIF functional).
My immediate problem is DECWRITE. Any time I ask DECWRITE to LINK TO PICTURE,
I get an ACCVIO when the external file is accessed (doesn't make any
difference if I'm viewing existing documents with LINKS, or trying to create
a new LINK). I haven't tried any of the other LINK options. Since I need
DECWDRITE in order to do my job ... I need to get back to DECWINDOWS.
Is there any way of doing this short of restoring my system disk (yes, I
captured an image backup just minutes before upgrading to MOTIF)?

This is a known problem in DECwrite that is QAR'd.

XUI Window Manager _IS_ the same window manager from version 2. Version 3
is still DECwindows, the change has been from the XUI toolkit/style guide/wm
to the Motif toolkit/style guide/window manager.
