Note 412.0 Display width problems with DECPCM VMS 1 reply

Hi!
One of my customers has to go to Polycenter DECPCM (from VCS) becouse
of the VMS Upgrade to VMS6.0.
It seems to work much like VCS but he has found a "little" problem,that
prevents him from the transition.
The SHIFT LEFT / SHIFT RIGHT Functions are not implementet.
SO the customer sees the first 80 characters of the console lines only.
He told me that switching to 132 characters doesn't work either becouse
you get a 132 char display, but the line still ends with character 80.
Further he would like more options then 80/132 to chouse an amount that
allows the bigger fonts.
Is this a user problem, a bug, or not implemented ?
thanks
Michael

Michael, We have not implemented this feature in PCM, if your customer sees this as a requirement for PCM, please have them submit a Phase 0 request to our Product Manager. Cheers, Phil | |||||

Michael, We did not implement SHIFT/LEFT or SHIFT/RIGHT. If you set your screen width to 132 characters, then start up the monitor interface. It should work ok when you "SET WIDTH 132" but apparently our curses code isnt quite right, this is a bug and is now on our list. A Phase 0 request is when you officially ask our product manager for a new feature to be implemented in the next product release, it is usually backed up with a business case. An SPR is a Software Performance Report, submitted via the CSC by the customer concerning a bug or a request for a new feature. Our product manager is Rae Kung (MUZICH::KUNG) Cheers, phil | |||||
