If this is the case, menu items may be displayed on two separate lines. To display all menu items on one single line, you can resize the application's window so that there is sufficient space to accommodate all menu items. Mnemonics must be present in the menu name and uniquely identified in the menu bar. Otherwise, it may cause unexpected behavior. 3.3 User Defined Characters User defined characters can be entered by internal codes only. 3.4 DECterm 3.4.1 Downline Loadable Characters Downline loadable characters (pre-loading and on-demand- loading) are not supported in DECterm. The escape sequence will simply be ignored. Known Problems and Restrictions 3-1 3.4.2 DRCS Not Fully Supported In DECterm, only the Standard Character Set (SCS) is supported and the DECDLD control string is ignored. When DECterm receives the SCS of DRCS, it searches the X window server for the fonts with XLFD named as "-*-dec-drcs" and treats it as a soft characters set. 3.4.3 Two-byte Characters at the Last Column Ignored Any character which occupies two columns will be ignored by DECterm when displayed in the last column of a line. 3.4.4 Calculation of Rows and Columns The calculation of rows and columns in DECterm may not work correctly when the interactive style is Off-the- spot. In this case, setting the rows and columns in the Display Options dialog box may not give the correct sizing of DECterm. You need resize DECterm through mouse actions. 3.4.5 Defining DECterm Title in Command Line You cannot define the DECterm title in local language using the DCL command line. For example, you cannot use the following command to define a Korean DECterm title: $ CREATE/TERM/WINDOW=(TITLE=xx) 3.5 Cardfiler Quick Copy Problem In Cardfiler, the following dialog boxes do not support quick copy in local language: name card, rename card and search dialog. 3.6 Codeset Conversion Support in Cut-and-Paste Mail and Notepad do not support codeset conversion in clipboard operations, such as cut-and-paste. 3.7 CDA Viewer CDA Viewer does not support PostScript files which contain multi-byte characters. 3-2 Known Problems and Restrictions 3.8 Bookreader 3.8.1 Printing Restrictions Bookreader does not currently provide support for printing documents that contain multi-byte characters other Japanese. Thus, Mbookreader (decw$mbookreader) is added for printing multibyte bookreader files. The new Mbookreader utility is a modified version of V1.2-3 Bookreader that can support the printing of multibyte characters in bookreader files. Printing in landscape mode is not supported. It may not be possible to print a very large book if the size of the book exceeds the print spooler limits. Lines in tables may not align properly. Topic windows that contain multi-column text may not be printed correctly. Printing of Hangul Bookreader content can cause some characters to overlap. 3.8.2 Copyright Statements in Printed Material Breader places a copyright statement at the beginning of anything that is printed. This copyright statement comes from a field in the book file. If the field is empty, a Digital copyright statement is automatically placed at the start of the printed material. If you are producing your own books, be sure to place the correct copyright statement in the book file to avoid having Digital's copyright statement appear in your books. 3.8.3 Problems with Keyboard Equivalents Bookreader uses the keyboard accelerators supported in the Motif interface. The following problems exist: Pressing [F11] to cancel the Print dialog box or Search Results dialog box does not work. Pressing [F4] to display a pop-up menu does not work. Known Problems and Restrictions 3-3 When using the Screen forward button in the Topic window, when you reach the last screen in the book, the forward arrow is disabled. The focus then cycles around to the Close button. It should cycle to the Screen backward button. When using the Topic forward button in the Topic window, when you reach the last screen in the book, the forward button is disabled. The focus cycles to the Screen backward button. It should cycle to the Topic backward button. If any of the topic or screen buttons are selected, pressing Return or Enter moves forward by screen regardless of which button is selected. Pressing the space bar does the right thing. 3.8.4 Font Size of Bookreader Font size of the bookreader format documents generated by DECwrite should not be smaller than the available font size in the server. Otherwise, the text will overlap when viewed by the Bookreader. 3.9 Pre-Edit and Status Area Not Redrawn When you choose to use the off-the-spot or over-the-spot interactive style, the pre-edit and status areas will not redraw if these areas are occluded by other windows. You have to focus on the input window to redraw the pre-edit and status areas. 3.10 Off-the-spot Needs Manual Resizing If you choose to use the off-the-spot input style, the pre-edit and status areas are located at the bottom of an application. The status mode is displayed when you focus on the application's window. In some cases, especially if the application does not support auto-resizing, the pre-edit and status areas may not be seen at the bottom. In this case, you will need to resize the application window to accomodate the pre-edit and status areas. 3-4 Known Problems and Restrictions 3.11 Limitations when Running in Standard (English) OpenVMS In this version, some of the language variants can be installed and run on standard (English) OpenVMS with some limitations: 1. For Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese and Korean, cursor movement and multi-byte character deletion are not supported by the terminal drivers. You have to press the Delete key twice to delete a Chinese or Korean character and press the cursor key twice to traverse a Chinese or Korean character. A workaround to this problem is to enable the "two char delete" and "two char cursor movement" functions in DECterm. 2. The Phrase input method of the Traditional Chinese input server is not supported. 3. Since CMGR does not exist, user-defined characters cannot be defined and displayed on DECwindows screen. 4. Editors, such as EDT and TPU, do not support local language processing. 5. You cannot define local language personal names in DECwindows Mail. 3.12 Other Application Issues DECterm can work correctly only when running in DEC Korean. For Calendar, since the icon space is very limited, and the Korean font is quite large compared with the icon, some characters may overlap. DCL command in FileView cannot accept Korean input. Some HyperHelp may be displayed in English. If you want to use Korean text in the Personal Name field of DECwindows Mail, you have to install OpenVMS/Hangul and define the logical name MAILSHR as HMAILSHR.EXE so that the localized MAIL utility can be invoked. If DECwindows Mail is invoked by DCL commands, you should type: $ DEFINE MAILSHR SYS$LIBRARY:HMAILSHR.EXE $ RUN SYS$SYSTEM:DECW$MAIL Known Problems and Restrictions 3-5 3.13 Translated images not supported Translated images are not supported for Korean language. 3-6 Known Problems and Restrictions
