Re: [7.8] Modal dialog?

Has anyone else needed this kind of behavior?

In other words, events are handled as if it were not a dialog at all. Other windows which are not the parent of my dialog can be activated and used while the dialog is still open.

[7.8] Appearance of fonts on Linux

Why are fonts unsmoothed when running on Linux (Ubuntu 9)? What can be done about this?

I noticed the fonts looked bad with vw7.7nc under Debian GNU/Linx
(lenny), which should be similar to Ubuntu. Randy Taylor provided a fix
in case 432100, resolution Res98935. Note the resolution is really a
template you may need to edit to put the name of the font you want.
There were some additional issues with repainting of fonts not
happening, mostly fixed in Res98935. I don't know the extent to which
the fixes have been incorporated in later images.

I'm not sure what the rules are on posting the code, and so I'm just
providing the references.
