Problem Title:
Design Manager M1: How to change background colors from grey to white on workstations


Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description:
When openning the Design Manager or Report Browser using M1 on the
workstation running Sun or Solaris O/S, the background colors are
grey instead of white.


Solution 1:

If you want to change the colors of the background in the Design Manager
and the Report Browser from grey to white, then the .Xdefaults file can
be edited. First exit the Design Manager then Add the following to the
.Xdefaults file:

dsgnmgr*wuListBg : white

To change the backgrounds of all list/tree widgets of the gui apps to
white then instead of the above, add the following:

*wuListBg : white

make sure there are no spaces after 'white'

After making the above modification you will need to run the following
from the unix prompt:

xrdb -load .Xdefaults

After this run "dsgnmgr" and the background will be white.
