2315.0. "lib$spawn and color error" by TOWNS::RUFFIEUX () Tue Feb 20 1990 23:20

    
    I have a DECwindows application that uses the RTL command Lib$spawn to
    spawn off another DECwindows application when the user pushs a
    push_button to do so.  My problem is that when I spawn off the latter
    process I get the following color errors:
    
    X Toolkit Warning: DwtDrm__ConvertValue detected error Couldn't covert
    color/pixel 'darkslateblue' - Not found (DRMNotFound)
    
    This error repeats it self for every time the color darkslateblue and green
    are found in the UIL.  It does not occur for other colors I use.  The
    strange part is that when I run the application (without spawning it)
    these error's don't occur.  I find this very strange.  I've played
    around with it and can't seem to find any solutions.
    
    Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else has run into this problem or if
    anyone had any solutions.
    
    Thanks,
    
    Chris
