Re: x5250 window shading

I'm mostly curious if this is intended behavior or not. When a window popped up, the text to the right of that window changed color, as if the window were casting a shadow. xt5250 does not have the same behavior.

It is acting as though it received an over-sized erase command. Either the iSeries is sending an Erase to Address that is larger than the window or lib5250 is erasing more than necessary. lib5250 forces an erase to address for the size of the window since sometimes the iSeries sends the text behind the window (I have been unable to figure out why). You could use the trace= option and look for the create window command and the preceding erase to address and compare the sizes.
