Record #614

Problem Title:
SYMGEN 5.1: Does not support Viewlogic Proseries user-defined color defaults


Problem Description:




Solution 1:




PROGRAM: symgen

VERSION: 5.1 5.1.1


SHORT DESCRIPTION:

Symbols made by Symgen 5.1/5.1.1 do not utilize user color scheme.


LONG DESCRIPTION:

PROBLEM:

Symbols created by Symgen do not utilitze the user color scheme in the
Proseries environment. Instead, symgen always creates symbols that use the
new default Proseries color scheme, which is very unreadable.

CAUSE:

Symgen 5.1/5.1.1 does not read the Proseries environment files for color
information when it creates a symbol.

SOLUTION:

The user must open the symbol in the Procapture symbol view first. Next, the
user must manually change the colors of the symbol to the desired colors.
