Known Anomalies: SpectroGRAPH
Item Description Solution
1 On Windows NT, the pipe in the Stack
Link view connecting two models is split
horizontally with black on top and green
on the bottom.
There are no immediate plans to correct
this issue.
2 On Solaris, the menus appear to float
and remain back at their original position
when you:
1. Increase the background size of the
Universe view to a size larger than
default.
2. Close the edit.
3. Maximize the view.
4. Then move the view.
This is an issue with MOTIF. Sun
Microsystems has been alerted to this
issue. Try to avoid resizing the
SpectroGRAPH window.
3 A user does not receive updated changes
to the Preference files when running an
application against a server other than
the server the user’s account was
created on (e.g., a remote server). This
is a normal condition.
Preference value changes are saved to
the user preference (.prf) file in the
user’s home directory.
Since the file is in the user’s home
directory, other users in the group
cannot share the changed preference
values if those users are running
applications from a remote server.
This is a normal result of SPECTRUM
security. Aprisma may investigate a way
to change preference settings to
distinguish between preconnect
preferences and those preferences that
get saved to the server in the User Group
model.
4 On Windows NT, individual user
preference configuration files from the
User Editor (.prf) are stored in the root
directory instead of the user’s directory.
If a subsequent user launches the
application, those files are overwritten
by the subsequent user’s preferences.
Create a home directory for each user
profile using the Windows NT User
Manager. This ensures each user has a
unique home directory, unless the
Windows NT administrator sets it to the
same home directory for each user.
