To: multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Thu, 19 Feb 1998 16:43:21 +0100 (MET) Cc: jkh@time.cdrom.com, fenner@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] Content-Type: text Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org [this msg is CC-ed to the vat and tk/tcl maintainer...] on a freshly installed 2.2.5 i tried vat and have the following problem: an active site is shown as black chars on a black background... no need to say that the problem is quite annoying. I think this is related to the Tk4.2 -> Tk8.0 update, since it used to work before. Some investigation shows that, in sitebox.cc, around line 219, the call to tcl.attr("highlightColor") returns "black" despite the fact that the variable is instantiated to "white" in the tcl files. The same exact code on a 2.2.1 system using Tk4.1 (i think) works fine and highlightColor returns whatever is defined in the tcl scripts or in .RTPdefaults. So i believe that somehow the environment is not passed in the correct way to the procedure. Fixing this is beyond my knowledge so if someone wants to help... cheers luigi -----------------------------+-------------------------------------- Luigi Rizzo | Dip. di Ingegneria dell'Informazione email: luigi@iet.unipi.it | Universita' di Pisa tel: +39-50-568533 | via Diotisalvi 2, 56126 PISA (Italy) fax: +39-50-568522 | http://www.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/ _____________________________|______________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
