Message-ID: <2643@lll-lcc.UUCP> Date: 26 Oct 89 01:11:32 GMT Followup-To: poster Organization: Livermore National Laboratory Lines: 28 I've been trying to take as many resources as possible out of my code and put them into /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/. Some resources such as Fatrad*Label*borderWidth: 0 seem to work fine, but some of the resources for positioning within an Athena form widget appear to be ignored. For example, Fatrad*colorbar_label.fromHoriz: NULL and/or Fatrad*colorbar_label.horizDistance: 5 are ignored. I'm having similar problems with Athena text widget resources, although I have not yet been able to verify if this is related to one particular text resource such as textOptions, or if it is related to all text resources. Am I doing something wrong, or are there limits as to which resources can be listed in an app-defaults file? thanks, carol -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Livermore Lab (chapman@lll-crg.llnl.gov or chapman@lll-lcc.llnl.gov) P.O.
