Unix window sizing

Hi,
I ran into the window sizing on the Unix box.
When I ran my application on window environment, all
the windows appeared OK. However, when I ran my
application on the Unix box, the windows shrunk
dramatically. Sometimes, I could even see the words
on the window.
Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks
Anthony

Hello Anthony,
we use AIX 4.3.x on IBM and see the same problems on Motif 2.1.
1. Forte supports up to 3.0.N only Motif 1.2 on Unix-Platforms. At 3.0.N some
UNIX-OS's are supported with Motif 2.1.
2. The size of text depends on what font you has installed at UNIX Platform.
You are able to change the default Fonts at X11 and the available sizes of
fonts. X11 use at standard less fonts and font-sizes and maybe only 16
colors.
Because more colors and fonts increase the memory usage of X11.
3. All widgets, which are designed for WINDOWS are converted at X11/Motif.
(e.g. List-View, Tree-View)
4. The functionality of 'size to parent' and other behaviours of
grid-fields differ
at X11/Motif.
Solution: 1. You design the look and feel of the graphic client at UNIX-side.
2. You don't use WINDOW-specific widgets.
3. You migrate to Motif 1.2 at UNIX-side if your platform is
not supported
with Motif 1.2 (some other failures may also occur at
2.1 which may occur
a stack-backtrace error).
4. Set FORTE_STACK_SIZE at UNIX >= 100.000
5. See technotes at cyber-support for specific problems at Motif
Summary:
You will see, the graphical support at Motif (also keyboard specific
behaviours) must
be adjusted at X11/Motif before a synonym usage like WINDOWS is available.
You will see that Forte does not prefer Motif as favourite graphical client.
Don't be worry, you are able to adjust a lot of things in X11/Motif to have
a look
and feel like WINDOWS. LINUX has a graphical interface (fvwm) which simulates
the same behaviours of graphical interfaces like WINDOWS. This is only done
by adjustement of X11-parameters and ini-files.
Hpe this helps

    I think window auto-tuning is enabled.
    You can disable it by running the following commend.

  • Wrap Up Window Sizing

    In UCCX 10, is it possible to modify the Wrap Up Window size. I have a customer with quite a few wrap up codes, they would like to have the window sized accordingly so all wrap up codes are visible within the window.

  • In Events, want to scroll through window-sized images...

    Searched a bit on this, and haven't found a "yes" but thought I would check to see the current thinking.
    What I was hoping to do, was utilize the Apple mouse scroll button to easily view all the photos in an event, when they were clicked on to become window-sized. I know I can use the forward and back arrow keys to wander through the set, but the mouse is much more handy (and, I'm afraid, what I was used to with PSE and a scroll-wheel mouse on the PC.) It does let me use the scroll for the thumbnail view, and I'm just hoping I'm missing a setting to allow me to scroll the full-size pictures, too?
    This is a useful tool for flipping back and forth when comparing two very similar pics, when trying to select the better one, for example.
    Thanks again in advance for all help.

    Unbelievable! 100s pf apps and not even sorted alphabetically, you just have to have free time to hunt because sony developers didnt have the time to code a simple search feature! I wish i knew this before i bought the tv I would definitely go for another brand!

    Gareth,
    The first person you should check with is your SAP salesperson. The access to different downloads (IDES included) on Service Marketplace is limited by your current licensing.

  • Window sizing for PDA

    I am using RH X5. Output format is neg to the developer.
    However, how can I set the window sizing to be viewable on a PDA
    sized screen? I have minimal graphics but use a lot of tables.
    Thanks!
    Susan

    Did actually figure this out. These are the basic steps :
    Minimized the screen
    Clicked Alt and spacebar (this pops up a menu).
    Selected Move.
    Using cursor keys I arrowed down and right a couple of times (cursor starts in top left)
    Then I clicked on screen and the Desktop window showed up. I resized to where I wanted it.
    Did this process a couple of times until when I opened up a new window it came up to the size I wanted.

  • Need help with window sizing in unix

    hi all,
    i am building an application that will run on a silicon graphics machine with unix. my application has a jframe with a jtabbedpane attached to it. when the application is launched the jframe is the size of the monitors resolution but the jtabbedpane is not. this is not the case on a windows machine. i am using toolkit to get the window size from the machine for the jframe. do i need to use this for the jtabbedpane as well. can anyone help me with this problem.
    thanks,

    The difference is sizes between platforms may be due to Font-size differences of the components in the tabbed pane which results in the overall size of tabbed pane being different on the two platforms.
    To get the tabbed pane to appear the same relative to the frame, you should explicitely 'setBounds' on the tabbed pane as well as size the frame.

    Hi user;
    what are the common error while EBS R12 installation with os unix and windows.AFAIK there is no document which show common error.There are some common error for installation like:
    RW-5004- RW-50010 etc.
    For error we have to check instalaltion log files for can get more details about it
    oracle have any any check after installation all installation are correct according to no of directory, files and file size ?Oracle has 2 checking mechanisim during installation.
    1. Before start installation, rapidwiz makes Validate system Configuration check which is checking port avaliability,file system check etc.
    2. End of the installation,rapidwiz makes Validate system Configuration again to check jsp,dbc file, db avaliablity etc..
    For more details Please check:

  • 10.4.11 update and remote window sizing

    Very odd problem has popped up this evening:
    I upgraded a user's G5 iMac from 10.4.10 to 10.4.11, everything seems fine except for using remote control software such as ARD 3.2.1 and Timbuktu 8.7.
    When I first attempted to log into the machine after the update using Timbuktu, the machine was responding extremely slow and I figured out why. The window was not sizing correctly. It was off by about 3 horizontal pixel lines. So whenever you moved the cursor, it had to redraw the screen over and over as it attempted to resize inside the window. I turned off fit to window and it did the same thing. Basically making the machine unusable in a remote setting. I updated to Timbuktu 8.7 from 8.6, but this did not fix the problem.
    So I used the ARD machine to log in remotely. Oddly, I had the exact same problem. The response time was much better and I could do a little more, but still it was sluggish as it shifted the desktop back and forth as it attempted to redraw the screen any time I shifted the mouse up or down.
    Has anyone else had any problems with using ARD and the 10.4.11 update? I am using ARD Admin 3.2 and client 3.2.1
    Thanks,
    G

    I did try one thing: I logged off and back in as the "remote" user - the user account I had setup when I installed ARD on all the machines. When I do that, it works fine. Log back in as the main user, screen does the wacky scaling thing. Are there any particular prefs or files that control this that reside in the user's folder?

    I wish to create logical/ physical schema in oracle data integrator
    by running any windows or preferably unix script.
    is there any method or scripts provided in ODI?

    I think you could insert info into Matser Respository tables:
    Connect info: snp_connect
    Logical Schemas : snp_lschema
    Physical Schemas: snp_pschema
    Or you may write some sql to do this.

  • Help retrieving window sizing side/corner in Linux

    I'm coding in CVI 8.1 and using the 2010 RTE for Linux.  In Linux, EVENT_PANEL_SIZE fires multiple times instead of EVENT_PANEL_SIZING (as it is in Windows).  The problem is that the EVENT_PANEL_SIZE event doesn't provide any callback data in either eventData1 or eventData2.  Therein liles my problem, I need to know what side/corner of the window is being dragged to fire the EVENT_PANEL_SIZE events in Linux.  I'm going to go out on a limb and bet that the functionality for this hasn't improved since the 2010 Linux RTE release.  Hopefully someone can correct me if I'm wrong (we're in the middle of upgrading to latest CVI) or steer me in the right direction to acquire what side/corner the resize drag occurs on. 
    I'm really hoping I don't need to fall back to X to get the drag side info.
    Thanks,
    -shrew

    Thanks for the reply.  But I was already aware of the sizing functionality as I have programmed it for Windows.  What I wanted to know was how to retrieve the panel side that was being resized in Linux - as in PANEL_SIZING_TOPLEFT, PANEL_SIZING_TOP, PANEL_SIZING_BOTTOM, PANEL_SIZING_BOTTOM_RIGHT, etc.  The "PANEL_SIZING_---" flags are only available from an EVENT_PANEL_SIZING - NOT an EVENT_PANEL_SIZE (which arrives in Linux in lieu of EVENT_PANEL_SIZING) - that is the problem!
    I have done it, but it isn't the most streamlined thing in my opinion.  To determine the panel side being dragged I maintain the panel's Rect state (the entire window including window manager decorations and titlebar): top, left, width and height.  Without going into detail about how to get the sizing information the following is done:
    Every time EVENT_GOT_FOCUS ocurrs the Rect state is updated
    When an EVENT_PANEL_SIZE ocurrs in Linux I can determine the side being dragged by comparing the prior Rect state to the current state:
    If previous top and previous left are same as current top and current left:
    If previous width and previous height are different than current width and current height then we know the bottom right corner is being dragged so I can issue my own PANEL_SIZING_BOTTOMRIGHT
    If previous width and current width are same but previous height and current height are different then we know that the bottom edge is being dragged so I can issue my own PANEL_SIZING_BOTTOM
    Otherwise the only possibility now is PANEL_SIZING_RIGHT
    Etc.
    For readers of this who are dealing with Linux it is good to note this post as well.  Sometimes it is necessary to access the lower level X functions to get things done in Linux.

  • Template Images Move w/ Different Browser Window Sizing

    I need to know if it is possible to "lock" the images I have
    in my template so that when the browser window is resized the
    elements do not move and relocate themselves. If the window is
    sized down I just want it to cut off the images. Anyone have any
    suggestions? The help is greatly appreciated.

    Did you see my previous extensive reply?
    Suggestion 1: it's a bad idea to use file/pathnames that
    contain spaces (or
    any punctuation other than hyphen or underscore) like this -
    background-image: url(../images/IW%20background%20file2.jpg);
    ../images/top row/toppic3.jpg'
    -----------------^
    Suggestion 2: The indent icons are NOT appropriate for
    general layout. The
    have a SEMANTIC meaning (what is contained within them should
    be quoted
    material)....
    <blockquote>
    <p><a href="#" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()"
    Suggestion 3: When you want help with a layout problem, the
    best bet is to
    upload the offending page and post a link to it, rather than
    to just paste
    the code into a reply.
    Suggestion 4: All layout problems are related to a) the HTML
    markup you have
    on the page, and perhaps b) the CSS that cascades into that
    markup. Most of
    the answers given here will be given referencing HTML/CSS
    markup. To
    understand the answers that are given, you will need to have
    some
    understanding of HTML and CSS (and you will *definitely* need
    this to work
    effectively with DW). So -
    The images across the top of your page are simply adjacent
    image tags
    contained within anchor tags, which are all contained within
    a single
    paragraph tag, within a blockquote tag, directly within the
    body of the
    page, e.g.,
    <body>...<blockquote><p><a><img></a><a><img></a><a><img></a><p>
    The <blockquote> tag is a block tag. A block tag fills
    the width of its
    container, whatever that might be. This <blockquote>
    tag, therefore, will
    therefore reach from the left page margin to the right page
    margin, because
    it is only contained within the <body> tags - i.e.,
    there is no container
    wrapping the <blockquote> other than the
    <body></body> tags. As the browser
    viewport width changes, the space between the page's left and
    right margins
    changes concommitantly, reducing or enlarging the amount of
    space in which
    the <blockquote> tag sites. Thus, the effective width
    of the blockquote tag
    is affected immediately by the browser viewport width. In a
    similar
    fashion, the <p> tag, also a block tag, changes its
    width to accommodate the
    flexing of the viewport window. Since the images are just
    arrayed in
    adjacent locations within that <p> tag, if the width of
    the <p> tag is less
    than the aggregate width of the images, then the images will
    wrap to the
    next line.
    Is that the "motion" you are seeing? If so, it's unrelated to
    the
    incidental fact that the page is also made from a Template.
    You can fix this with a bludgeon or a scalpel.
    Bludgeon: Use CSS to give that <p> tag an explict
    width, and to set overflow
    to hidden, e.g.,
    <p style="width:969px;overflow:hidden;">....
    Scalpel: Redesign the page layout....
    Hope that helps.
