364.0. "PROBLEM: Iconic PM Not Displaying Multi-word Entity Names Correctly" by COOKIE::KITTELL (Richard - Architected Info Mgmt) Fri Sep 28 1990 17:00

X1.1.0

The MSL has:

             CHILD ENTITY VMS File = 13 :

But the entity is displayed in the Map window as

Vms file...

More worrisome is a problem that does not appear at all times. The problem
manifests itself as black vertical bars about a character wide. The bars
appear only in map windows that have multi-word child entities displayed.
The bars show up in and around the child entity names.

But the wierd part is that they have never shown up when I run DECmcc on
our cluster and define display to point at my Ultrix V4.0 RISC workstation.
They don't show up run I run DECmcc on LaMama, a VS3100 running VMS 5.3
and set display to point at my workstation. The bars *do* show up when
Lynne runs on LaMama (her WS) with local display.

Very curious, eh?

364.1Problem still happens when spaces changed to underscoresCOOKIE::KITTELLRichard - Architected Info MgmtSat Sep 29 1990 16:0319
We changed

             CHILD ENTITY VMS File = 13 :

to

             CHILD ENTITY VMS_File = 13 :

and we still have the problem. Next I'll try

             CHILD ENTITY VMSFile = 13 :

We did a screen capture and tried to post it. But the version of Notes on
Cookie has been upgraded since the last time I did that, and the new
version doesn't seem to be able to post DDIF anymore.

If you want the screen capture, send mail to COOKIE::LBROWN and she can
mail you PostScript.

I got the same Problen wenn i did an upgrade to vms 5.4 <Internal SSB>.

It looks like a Problen of the DecwondowServer under VMS 5.4, because wenn
i use a vaxstation running a vms 5.3 every is working well.

My guess it is an incompatibily between a decmcc 1.1 and decwindowns under
VMS 5.4 !
