The Analysis Manager GUI on Unix requires the use of certain X Window System Resources. The following explains this use.
The name of the Analysis Manager X application class is P3Mgr. Therefore, to change the background color the Analysis Manager uses to red, the following resource specification is used:
P3Mgr*background: red
The lines below belong in the P3Mgr file delivered with your installation. This file can be found in $P3_HOME/app-defaults. This file can reside in the user’s local directory or in his home directory or be placed in .Xdefaults or /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults. It is most convenient to place it in the user’s home directory; that way changes can be made instantly without having to log out. These are the resources which the Analysis Manager requires for it to look and behave like Patran.

A file called p3am_admin (AdmMgr) also exists for the system administration tool X resources.
Font Handling
The Analysis Manager on Unix requires three fonts to work correctly. At start-up, the Analysis Manager looks through the fonts available on the machine and picks out three fonts which meet its needs. You will notice that there are no font definitions in the default Analysis Manager resources. On platforms which utilize an R4 based version of X windows, the fonts are NOT adjustable by the user. The fonts that the Analysis Manager calculates are used all the time.
On R5 X windows platforms, the three fonts are still calculated by the Analysis Manager, but the user has the option of overriding the calculated fonts by using the X resources. The names of the resources to use are as follows:
P3Mgr*fontList: | *lucida-bold-r-*-14-140-* |
P3Mgr*middle.fontList: | *lucida-medium-r-*-14-140-* |
P3Mgr*fixed.fontList: | *courier-medium-r-*-12-120-* |
If the user decides to change the fonts, these are the resources which need to be set. All three fonts do not have to be changed, a single one can be adjusted by itself. The only requirement is that a fixed font is defined for P3Mgr*fixed.fontList. It is important for this font to be fixed or the interface for the Queue Monitor will not appear correctly.
