- Hi,
-
- I just had the same problem. The program works fine. The problem is
- that the app-defaults file is not getting loaded. The name of the
- file is either:
-
- PixmapAthenaAD or
- PixmapMotifAD
-
- What you need to do is move this file to some place where is can be
- found. Check out the environement variable XUSERFILESEARCHPATH it
- should be in any good ook on Xt.
-
- Basically you need to rename the file to Pixmap (Application Class
- Name). And place it in a directory where it can be found.
-
- What I have is:
-
- ~/.defaults/Pixmap -- The PixmapMotifAD file.
-
- ~/.bitmaps/Pixmap/* -- The bitmaps for DownM, etc.
-
- Then the environment variables:
-
- XUSERFILESEARCHPATH=~/.defaults/%N -- Where to find the app-defaults.
-
- XBMLANGPATH=~/.bitmaps/%N/%B -- Where to find the bitmaps.
-
- The XBMLANGPATH may not work under Athena widgets.
-
-
- Hope this helps, if you have any questions feel free to email me. You
- may also want to check out the book:
-
- X Window System Toolkit by Asente & Swick
-
- They discuss this on pgs. 666-667 and 859-860, among others.
