UM-Console and UM-Editor use native Motif objects in their windows (for example Text, Push Button or Arrow Button). As a result, the environment (colors and fonts) of these objects is not determined by the application but the default Motif environment.
The environment may be customized using the « UM-Console » or « UMED » files that come with the software. Proceed as follows:
replace
the values of the parameters of the « UM-Console » or « UMED » files by the values that suit your graphic environment;
copy
this file into the
/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults
directory.
By default, Open Desktop 5.0 is supplied with the *fontList and *XmList.fontList native resources set to different values in the
/usr/lib/X11/sco/startup/Fonts
file. As a result, UM-Console or UM-Editor may stop unexpectedly.
To overcome this problem, log on as "root" and edit this file. Transform the lines that start with *XmList.fontList into commentaries, as shown in the following example:
*XmList.fontList
will become
/* *XmList.fontList: ... */
Use the following command to load the new X resources:
xrdb -l /usr/lib/X11/sco/startup/Fonts.
