4038.0. "Problem when selecting a line." by STKMCC::LUND (Niklas Lund) Thu Nov 05 1992 06:03

Hi !

When selecting an entity, which is displayed as a line on the Iconic map, the
small lines around the object are not visible.
When changing the mcc_pml.map_windowBackground color from White to black i can
see the surrounding lines which are white.
How does mcc pick the color of the surrounding lines ? is there a resource ? 
because i wan't to use mcc_pml.map_windowBackground = White.
  
I am using system default versions of mcc_resource.dat, .Xdefaults and Mwm 
files.

4038.1Highlight color from Session ManagerTOOK::BMURRAYTue Nov 17 1992 13:2829
    
    Niklas,
    
    
    Sorry it has taken so long for you to get a response to your question.
    
    The selection color for the box, square, line, and double lines comes
    from your session manager's Highlight resource.  There are two ways you
    can change this color if selection is not showing on your map.
    
    (1) Add the line:
    		
    		*Highlight:	<color goes here>
    
        to your .Xdefaults file in your home directory and restart the
    session manager.
    
    (2) Create a file my_resources.dat (or whatever you want to call it).
    Place the line:
 
       		*Highlight:	<color goes here>
    
    in the file.  Do a setenv XENVIRONMENT <pathname>my_resources.dat. Now,
    whenever you run the Iconic Map it will use the new color from that
    file.
