The application in question uses a "rubber band" box that you can drag around like a "zoom window" with the contents amplified in another portion of the window above. When doing this from a VMS workstation (DS20E with Radeon 7500 card) the "rubber band" box leaves ghost trails everywhere that it is "dragged". Worse, the ghost lines do not clear when you stop dragging.
I can run the same application from any other X-server I've tried (e.g., Exceed, Excursion and xwin-32 on WinXP and xfree86 on Linux) connected to the very same VMS machine and everything works fine (i.e., no ghosting). One notable difference when using the software is that the DecWindows X-server will continually try to redraw the zoomed region while dragging the mouse. The others do not... they wait until you pause the mouse before redrawing the other window. This made me suspect the event input mask settings. I've looked at the settings using xdpyinfo using the different x-servers and noticed that the server input masks are indeed different. Is there any way to change the mask or could this even be a cause?
Any ideas or thoughts are much appreciated. I'm seriously considering just putting together some thin Linux x-terminals to get around the issue--as silly as that sounds.
Thank you,
Bobby

Re: X-Windows Ghosting | Radeon 7500
I'm told that this is probably a known and parhaps not yet fixed bug so you need to report it to encourage them to produce a fix.

Re: X-Windows Ghosting | Radeon 7500
Unfortunately, I do not know how to contact the folks at the "hp customer support center". I've looked across the HP web site but have found very little related to VMS support options. I'm sure there's a simple way... but I have yet to find it. Any referemces in this regard would be appreciated. I'd really like to provide input directly to a VMS engineer who works on this particular part of the OS to help resolve the bug.
Thanks again,
Bobby

Otherwise I guess there is a phone number but I don't know it for your location.
