- I have recently converted from Decwindows (old) to Decwindows Motif and
- have a coupla questions.
-
- 1. My screen background never comes up automatically. To get my choice of
- screen background (colours and pattern) from the session manager, I have to
- go into the options menu/screen background and change the configuration to
- something wrong, apply it, change it back to what I want, then apply it
- again. I have `Save Screen Manager'd many times, but my background doesn't
- come up automatically.
-
- 2. I have also changed my pointer shape and colours. This works EXCEPT when
- I go into any sort of menu, when my pink and black hand reverts to a black
- arrow.
-
- What am I doing wrong?
-
- Apart from these annoying things, I like most of the motif interface,
- particularly being able to customise my workspace button menus.
