| 521.1 | Iconic Map Objects on a monochrome display | SMAUG::BELANGER | Quality is not a mistake! | Wed Dec 05 1990 18:50 | 11 |
|
When using the ICONIC MAP with a monochrome monitor (taking into
consideration note 521.0), background maps can be displayed and
are filled with black. Icons on this background can also be dis-
played, but the lines connecting these objects cannot be seen. The
lines are rendered in black and as such, blend in with the background.
I'm not sure how this can be fixed. It is a real nuisance but does
function.

| 521.2 | Exiting DECmcc from the Iconic Map | SMAUG::BELANGER | Quality is not a mistake! | Wed Dec 05 1990 18:52 | 9 |
|
When I exit the iconic map I get the error:
X Toolkit Warning: XtRemoveGrab asked to remove a widget not on the grab list
I'm not sure where this is coming from but seems to be related to
the "exit confirmation" window.

| 521.3 | can you use other Maps | TROU47::SLEE | | Wed Dec 05 1990 21:18 | 16 |
|
Is this the EFT1.1 kit (just released) that is being talked about
here?
The background map that .1 mentions, I presume is one of the maps
that come with the kit. Does anyone know what format these map files
are? Further to that, would it be possible to create your own map,
say one that is merely an outline, as opposed to be shaded in?
One other question I was going to ask, was if and how the ICON MAP
PM will present Notifications? Ordinarily you are able to setup various
colors to indicate various alarm levels. Is it a case of, if you
want on-screen alarm notification then you must have a color monitor?

| BTW...
to add to Freds, you will find the inforamtion on customizing you
notification colors, and setting up rules in the Director Use manual.
You can copy the manual from WORDY (see note 3.36).

Thanx,

That assumes you have a color system (I do not).
