833.0. "DECgraph V1.5 and DECwindows (VMS 5.1)" by 24785::ONEILL () Wed May 24 1989 09:15

    
    
    I am running VMS V5.1 and DECwindows on VAXstation II/GPX.  Have
    a number of DECcalc/DECgraph spreadsheets/graphs that need to
    be migrated from timeshare cluster to the workstation.  Recently 
    installed DECgraph V1.5 on GPX.  When I issue $GRAPH, the DECgraph
    main menu is painted.  When I choose a DECgraph icon/function,the 
    process enters a LEF state and never proceeds.  A $SHOW TERM on the 
    process "says"  the window is VT300_series, REGIS terminal.
    
    Does DECgraph not work with DECwindows?  If not, why not
    (informational)?  If not, is a conversion effort necessary?
    
    Thanks.

	Why not look into the DECdecision stuff? For questions about DECterm, try the DECterm conference.. There should be a pointer at the beginning of this conference... mike

	Re: .0 DECterm does support ReGIS, although there VT330/VT340 compatibility problems. I can't tell from your description why $GRAPH isn't working. The DECTERM conference is at HANNAH::DECW$DISK:[PUBLIC]DECTERM (KP7 to select). -- Bob

	re .0: I have exactly your configuration and everything works fine. The only difference is that I've only called DECgraph from DECalc. The only problem I have then is that the graphics text is not properly sized. I also change my DECterm setup to give a VT240 id to stop DECalc from giving "unsupported terminal type, assuming VT102" message. Sm
