1802.0. "Toolbox icons overlap...." by OTOOA::DOIRON (R_Doiron@Kaofs.enet.dec.com) Tue Nov 12 1991 18:52

    I have "upgraded" my v1.1 bms demo station with the concentrator am,
    the snmp am and the tsam am but now run into a strange problem.
    
    The toolbox icons for the am's overwrite each other. The icon is ok but
    the text description below will overlap the icon beside. Most noticable
    is the concentrator icon. 
    
    The question is how do I move these icons apart so that the display is
    readable. Doing a demo with the toolbox as it currently is leads the
    customer to believe the product is immature but feature rich.
    
    A five minute solution would be most appreciated, but I'm not holding
    my breath. I have had numerous customers point out the garbled text in
    the navigation window. The solution is of course to run Motif.
    
    Thanks,
    Richard

	Its a  "bug"  in  V1.1  that  isn't easily fixed (thats the bad
	news).  The good  news  is  that it is fixed in V1.2 (available
	soon).

    That's the answer I'm hearing more and more lately, especially with
    other products. 
    
    As an aside, up here in Canada we are finding a pent up demand for the
    services that DECmcc provides/will provide. The telco's are really
    interested in the OSI/CMIP AM, and the PNMP announcements.
    
    I am doing demos weekly to large government departments who are just
    awakening to the somber task of integrating large networks. If we
    deliver all that was presented at the v1.2 seminar, this product will
    be a winner. 
    
    The biggest challenge will be in the desktop space. If we can survive
    and manage this area we stand a very good chance of becoming 'the
    standard' for large government networks, at least here in Ottawa.
    
    Keep up the good work.
