Thanks for the replies, the fix was simple. I've included a response from "Henry
A. Flogel (Hal)" <a08803_at_mailhub.wpl.com> as it was the most descriptive, but
others gave the same answer. Thanks to all.

This is controlled by the FrontPanel configuration.
There is a system configuration file named: /usr/dt/appconfig/types/C/dtwm.fp
Each user MAY have their own customized version(s) in:
/HOMEDIR/.dt/types/*.fp
The CONTROL you are interested in is the Lock control in the SWITCH
container. Add the definition "DELETE true" to that section, or create
a different action and change the PUSH_ACTION definition to that new action.
here is what mine looks like:
CONTROL Lock
{
TYPE icon
CONTAINER_NAME Switch
CONTAINER_TYPE SWITCH
POSITION_HINTS 1
ICON Fplock
LABEL Lock
PUSH_ACTION LockDisplay <-- change this line or add DELETE def.
HELP_TOPIC FPOnItemLock
HELP_VOLUME FPanel
}
You can create an action through the Applications>tools>createaction
application or manually here is an example:
(create a file named "Mylock.dt" with the following definition, and restart
the workspace manager)
ACTION Mylock
{
LABEL Lock
TYPE COMMAND
EXEC_STRING /usr/bin/X11/dxpause
ICON Fplock
WINDOW_TYPE NO_STDIO
}
