2490.1 | Motif migration is underway for both Ultrix and VMS. | TOOK::A_MOORE | | Thu Mar 05 1992 09:05 | 5 |
| Motif migration very aggresively underway for both Ultrix and VMS. They probably
will not arrive at same moment. Ultrix would be first.
It involves the forging of two operatings systems, DECthreads, MOTIF, GOBE,
and parallel DECmcc development into one seamless piece.

2490.2 | | RACER::dave | Ahh, but fortunately, I have the key to escape reality. | Thu Mar 05 1992 10:35 | 2 |
| This, of course, should be a very simple matter for someone with Al's vast
skills!!!

2490.3 | | CSOA1::HORRIGAN | | Thu Mar 05 1992 17:01 | 4 |
| Any idea when the field could expect a MOTIF product on VMS? On Ultrix
or OSF/1?

2490.8 | Yes, but keep a close watch | TOOK::DOUGHERTY | | Mon Mar 09 1992 07:41 | 6 |

Several of the developers have been running under the Motif Window
manager without any problems.

2490.9 | MOTIF problem with DECterm windows disappearing. | CUJO::HILL | Dan Hill-Net.Mgt.-Customer Resident | Tue Mar 10 1992 01:04 | 13 |
| Our group has been working with engineering to resolve a quite nasty
problem in Motif V1.1 under VMS V5.5. The problem involves DECterm
windows disappearing when doing numerous window manipulations on a
heavily used workstation.
I have encountered it 3 times, while others have seen it much more
often. The latest patches were installed today. Let me know via
VAXmail (CUJO::HILL) if anyone is interested.
By the way, this is the only problem I have noticed with DECmcc and
MOTIF.

2490.10 | Same problem with DECwindows... | DFLAT::PLOUFFE | Jerry | Tue Mar 10 1992 09:45 | 17 |
| Dan:
I have had the same problem with DECterm windows disappearing (when doing
numerous window manipulations on a heavily used workstation) under DECwindows.
Do you know of any patch for DECwindows? Know anyone I could contact?
My group will be moving to VMS 5.5 and Motif in 1-2 months, so this is not
a critical issue, but, if there is a patch and it's easy to install...
Anyway, could I ask you to post the Motif patch in this conference. I
believe that a number of DECmcc development systems will eventually need this
patch.
Thanks in advance...

2490.11 | Motif development group info | CUJO::HILL | Dan Hill-Net.Mgt.-Customer Resident | Thu Mar 12 1992 01:00 | 19 |
| The bug in Motif V1.0 that resulted in DECterms being lost was resolved
with the patching of the DECW$XTSHR.EXE image. This bug was present in
Motif EFT 1.1, but the new image fixed it.
However there are a number of other bugs still being worked. These are
in the EFT 1.1 version and involve the abortion of the window manager
altogether (has happened to me three times). The window manager must
be restarted from scratch.
Additionally, one member of our group found that he could cause an
ACCVIO which resulted in the DECterm windows disappearing. This
happened when doing graphics on a heavily loaded system. This was
found today, so the DECterm bug is still present in another area.
Please contact Dave Doucette (I do not have a mail address, so please
use ELF) if you have any questions or concerns. He is involved with
Motif development.

2490.12 | Alt F4 not nice | DPDMAI::JONESDS | | Thu Mar 12 1992 12:24 | 8 |
| I would like to see the Motif window close (Alt F4) supported a little
better. The DECplan folks using alot of the same pieces seem to have
this figured out. For example: When you Close the navigate window,
the IMPM exits as well, the DECplan folks (Lorraine Ricard D381.2609 is
eng. mgr.) have fixed this (and other instances) to just close the
navigate window.

2490.13 | Problems with Motif 1.0A too | ANDRIS::putnins | Hands across the Baltics | Thu Mar 12 1992 17:49 | 5 |
| I'm running DECmcc T.1.2.4 (not BL15) on VMS 5.5 with Motif 1.0A, and I
often have to restart the Motif Window Manager after it exits. This is
usually preceeded by the IMPM reporting a number of X toolkit errors.

2490.14 | HOT KEY support? | ARRODS::GILLJ | John, DTN 847-5849 | Fri Mar 13 1992 10:17 | 16 |
|
As I understand it MOTIF supports the use of 'HOT KEYS'.
I am currently compiling a bid for a customer who wants to be able
to define their own HOT KEYS (e.g. CNTRL/X executes
my_decmcc_commands).
Can we (or do we hope to) offer this functionality?
If so, will it be supported in both Iconic Map and FCL interfaces?
Customers wan everything!

2490.15 | Closing/Iconizing Motif windows abort DECmcc | TAVIS::ORNA | | Wed Jul 29 1992 11:11 | 9 |
| I'm running DECmcc T.1.2.7 under Motif 1.1.3 on an ULTRIX DECstation.
When I want to iconize the Toolbox, for example, DECmcc aborts.
It also happens when I want to close the Toolbox/Navigation,..
window using the close option from the up-left Motif menu.
Is it a bug, does it happen under DECwindows also?
Orna.

2490.16 | Upgrade. | TOOK::BMURRAY | | Thu Jul 30 1992 14:02 | 22 |

Orna,
It looks like you have a fairly old baselevel. The first thing I would
do is install the lastest V1.2.0 as it fixes many bugs existing in
T1.2.7.
There was a workaround for users who were running under the OSF/Motif
window manager instead of the DECwindows XUI window manager. It was
the addition of some Mwm resources to the resource file to disable
the close from the Mwm system menu. Here are the resources:
Mwm*MCCclass*clientFunctions: -Close
Mwm*shell_class*clientFunctions: -Close
Mwm*mcc_graph_resource*clientFunctions: -Close
