717.0. "Title bar change for connected systems?" by CSC32::D_DONOVAN (SummaNulla(The High Point of Nothing)) Mon May 08 1995 22:03

 
	Just got off the phone with a customer who wants to find a way for 
permanently changing the title bar on the DECterm that PCM creates when a 
request to "Connect to Console" is made.  He would like to ensure that the 
DECterm for the console connection is in someway denoted as belonging to PCM to
avoid the confusion when other DECterms are open.  This is something that 
several other customers that I have spoken with over the past few months 
have mentioned also.  I haven't seen this discussed before but is there 
someway he can do this now with V1.5 or can/will this be a feature in a 
future release.

Thanks,

Dennis

It does already.

If you click in a DECterm created by PCM it changes the title bar and Icon
title. I just did it on my OSF system and it did just that. 

Cheers Simon....

re: .1

	Hi Simon.  Sorry for being "vague" again but the issue is not that it 
changes the window and icon title bar - it does - but rather what it changes it 
to.  Customers would like to see the title bars have a "PCM" or "Console Mgr." 
string PLUS the node name in the title.

Dennis,
       
       currently we put out ""system" CM Console Window". what would you prefer.
If you are quick I can ask the C3 engineer to change it for you.

Cheers Simon...

Hi Simon,

	I would like to see (and I hope I'm echoing the customer's request too) 
"PCM Console: node_name" in the title bar for the Window and maybe (somewhat
abbreviated) "PCM:node_name" for the Icon.

How's that?

    Dennis,
    
       OK, your requests have been complied with. The next relase of PCM
    (V1.6) will have these changes.
