-
- HP-PHIGS 2.3 on HP-UX 9.0 using Motif 1.2 provides a new Motif Widget called
- "XgPhigsDraw" that creates an PHIGS workstation that is attached to a Motif
- DrawingArea.
-
- HP-PHIGS MOTIF WIDGET: XgPhigsDraw
- ----------------------------------
- A new Motif 1.2 widget has been added for HP-PHIGS that will provide
- the following assistance:
-
- - Automatically opens a HP-PHIGS workstation inside of a Motif
- DrawingArea widget
- - Handle resizing the workstation when the window is resized
- - Redraw the workstation when the window is exposed
- - Set the Window Manager colormap priority for the HP-PHIGS colormap
- - Close the HP-PHIGS workstation when the Motif widget is destroyed
-
- An example HP-PHIGS application using the new widget and demo program
- explaining the different options can be found in the examples (i.e.,
- /usr/lib/phigs/examples/Xg) and demo (i.e., /usr/lib/phigs/demos/Xg)
- directories included in the HP-PHIGS 2.3 Programming Environment
- product.
-
- Please refer to the "HP-PHIGS Workstation Characteristics and
- Implementation manual" for HP-PHIGS 2.3 and the XgPhigsDraw man
- page for more information.
-
- It has it's own set of X resources that can be set to specify visual depth
- and the necessary color environment.
-
- The source and makefile for the XgPhigsDraw widget, as well as, two complete
- examples of how to write HP-PHIGS applications using the widget are shipped
- with the HP-PHIGS 2.3 release.
-
- I encourage you to upgrade if possible.
-
- Sincerely,
