Re: [foxboro] Resetting graphics optimization for FoxView?

Kevin,
After you converted the displays, did you get rid of the old DM displays
from that machine?

If not, please try the experiment again, but rename the DM display to
something else.

Once a display is converted to FV, it cannot actually revert to DM format.
So, I suspect that the search order must be <dispName>.pdf -> <dispName>.fdf
and you are getting the DM version again.

Norbert,

That was my first thought, however it didn't work out as well in practice. 
After doing the fdf_g and g_fdf, all displays that had been converted from
DM
had the problem that when an overlay was called the display reverted to
previous display in addition to opening the overlay.
