PC3270 in XGA bckgrnd clrs cannot change 6/06/94
File:XGA.fax
TITLE: RUNNING PC3270 IN XGA MODE BACKGROUND COLORS CANNOT
BE CHANGED.
DESCRIPTION OF SYMPTOMS:
If the enhanced front of screen is used(this is the
default... its set on the Display options panel of the
Advanced Configuration Options portion of the
configuration) then there will be no background color on
the RULE line.... Enhanced mode causes the PC/3270 to use
something called MFI functions of the XGA.2 card, and one
of these functions needs attribute byte that is associated
with the RULE background color.
SUMMARY OF RESOLUTION:
Run the PC/3270 using vga functions by editing the .bat
file in the PCDOS directory or set the Enhanced Front of
Screen to off.
DETAILS OF RESOLUTION:
1. Change to the c:\PC3270\PCSDOS directory. 2. Edit the
.bat file within the directory. There will only be one.
3. Change the following line:
C:\PC3270\PCSDOS 2 a=24*80 b=24*80 -gs -f -ef %CMGR.QUIET%
TO
C:\PC3270\PCSDOS 2 a=24*80 b=24*80 -gs -f -ef -vga
%CMGR.QUIET%
NOTE: The other solution is to set the Front of Screen to
off in the Display options panel of the Advanced
Configuration Options portion of the PC3270 set up.
