224.0. "Controlling Iconic PM Colors" by COOKIE::KITTELL (Richard - Architected Info Mgmt) Wed Aug 01 1990 16:53

The colors the Iconic PM is using to draw maps are combining with my system
defaults with invisible results. er, you know what I mean.

Until such things can be set through the Customize pull-down, can I
control them with resources?

    Richard,
    
    Sorry for the response delay...catching up.  There is no way to
    influence the colors used to draw objects on the screen in the version
    you have.  There will be though, probably as resources in a customize
    file.

Since I'm running DECmcc over to my Ultrix workstation, I was able to walk
around the window structure and determine that the resources listed below
will set the colors so I can see the map lines.

This works for me on X1.1.0 but will probably not in future baselevels,
your mileage may vary.
