Erwin,

  My guess would be a problem with font sizes, although the UIL
  in the editor code uses attachments and is set up to size
  itself.

  Is the VXT using 100 or 75DPI fonts?

Cheers,
Phil

    I also have been working with a customer who has a 4000 VLC running
    OpenVMS V6.1, Motif V1.2 and PCM V1.5.  The same thing as .0 is 
    happening.  The decwindows interface for the CONSOLE EDITOR is missing
    the bottom of the create/modify/show system window.  There is no
    OK, APPLY, CANCEL or HELP button.   Is this a motif 1.2 issue?  And
    what can be done to correct it?
    
    Thanks,

Nancy,

  Same question as before, what monitor size and density (DPI) do they have?
  We can then try and reproduce the problem.

Cheers,
Phil

    Phil,
    
    The monitor size is 16" (VRC16-HA) and the DPI is 100.

Nancy,

  I have a VRT16-DA on a VS4000 model 60 running at 100DPI without
  any problems.

  I have a VRC160-D3 on a VS4000-VLC running at 100DPI without
  any problems.

  I thought the VRC16-HA was the PC-style Super-VGA monitor as
  used on the Jensen and PC's.

  Are you sure you are running at 100DPI, have you set it up
  correctly in your DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.COM file?

Cheers,
Phil

Phil,

sorry, but it takes a long time, to get more information from the customer.

The customer uses a VR326 monitor ( 15" display ).
The VXT2000 display scaling was set to 100% ( with the Customize X Server 
dialog box ), to get bigger windows. 	 
The customer reduced the scaling to 75% and the problem with PCM disappeared.
Attached you'll find an output from DECW$UTILS:XDPYINFO.EXE with the 75% display
scaling. It was impossible, to get the same output with 100% display scaling.
(The customer doesn't change back to 100% scaling till now)
