Resources to Set When Text Appears Invisible
If you start FrameMaker and the pages appear to be empty,
and/or the ruler is not visible, the problem may be with the with
allocation of color resources in your login session. You may have a
very colorful background, or may use a wide variety of colors for the
various applications you run. In order to get around this you should
add the following lines to your .Xresources file:
Maker.colorDocs: False
Maker*winRect.foreground: black
Maker*docBackground: white
The first time you add these lines you will need to reload your
Xresources by typing:
xrdb -load ~/.Xresources
and then restart FrameMaker. For more information on using
the .Xresources file, look at the stock answer under the XWINDOWS topic.
