Don....good class you teach! I took it in Chicago about a year back.
I had the same issues with input block not appearing when using
eXceed. I have switched to Reflection-X and that issue seems to be resolved,
however I do have issues where sometimes text appears with a black highlight
making it unreadable. I then have to minimize and bring it back up and the
highlighting disappears.

Subject: [NV-L] eXceed problems with NetView
Dave,
I do not have a fix for this "frustrating" behavior, but a
workaround.
Whenever the Locate dialog box opens without the input field, just
MOVE
the eXceed window slightly and the input field will magically
appear.
I would be very interested if anyone has a real solution for this
too.
I found an eXceed users forum at the Hummingbird site that I have
also
copied with this message.

On a related note, and as long as we have a thread dealing
with emulators:
I'm running eXceed, with few problems except one that's driving
me nuts. (Admitedly, that's a short ride...)
The problem I just haven't been able to fix is when doing a
Locate > Objects > By Attribute..., and selecting something
that requires you to enter information, e.g. IP Hostname, or
IP Address, the dialog box comes up without the text entry
window. There's no place to type the hostname or address...
If you start selecting other attributes, at random, sooner or
later the text entry portion of the window will magically
appear, and you can go back and select the attribute you originally
wanted to select, enter the regex and hit apply. It's frustrating
as all heck, needless to say.
My server is AIX 4.2.1, and I have exceed start a dtterm using
/usr/dt/bin/dtterm -display xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:0&. I tried Leslie's
suggestion of playing with mwm, and changing the window manager
from native to X, and the problem actually got worse. I could
not force the text entry portion to magically appear no matter
how hard I pounded on it.
Anybody seen and/or fixed such a problem?
Thanks,
