How to Change DiskSuite Tool's Default Colors and Fonts

You can change DiskSuite Tool's default colors and fonts by using one of the following four methods.

• For one invocation of DiskSuite Tool, use the xrm option to specify the alternate font or color resources.

  # metatool -xrm 'resource'

• For all of your invocations of DiskSuite Tool, edit your own .Xdefaults file and specify the alternate color or font resources. The .Xdefaults file is typically loaded when you start your desktop session. After editing this file, the next time you start your desktop session, the new or changed resources will be used.

• For the current session, without having to restart, use the xrdb utility.

  # xrdb -merge path_to_.Xdefaults

• For all users of DiskSuite Tool, edit the /usr/sadm/lib/lvm/X11/app-defaults/Metatool file. Changes made to this file are recognized the next time DiskSuite Tool is started.

Example -- Changing Fonts

This example changes the standard font to lucidasans16 for a single invocation of DiskSuite Tool.
