Hello managers,

i asked how to add new backdrops for the CDE-environment.

My thanks to Miguel Mena <migi_at_zuo.dec.com> who gave me the right pointer:

> it's documented in the Advanced User's and System

> 1. create a bitmap or pixmap.

> 2. copy the backdrop to one of these directories:
> System-wide backdrops: /etc/dt/backdrops
> Personal backdrops: HomeDirectory/.dt/backdrops
>
> 3. restart Workspace Manager from the Workspace menu.
>
> system-wide and personal backdrops are added to the built-in
> backdrops in /usr/dt/backdrops.


I will try this now.

With regards,
