Success.

I created a file called /etc/dt/appconfig/types/C/boks_lock.dt containing

ACTION LockDisplay
{
        LABEL LockDisplay
        TYPE COMMAND
        WINDOW_TYPE NO_STDIO
        EXEC_STRING /export/home/hss0085/dt_ss/boks_screensaver
        DESCRIPTION The LockDisplay action locks the workstation.
}

And this works fine.....

Thanks to

After not getting many replies, I decided to have a dig around and found
under /usr/dt/examples/dtscreen how to do it.
BUT (and there always is a BUT) I cann't get it to work, dtintergrateapp
doesn't want to play ball.

My main reason for trying to do this is to able control the choice of
screen savers the users get in the style manager and also it starts mine
when they press the padlock on the front panel.

Best regards

Hi Managers,

I have a screen saver which I want all my CDE users to use.

I have the executable and I want this to be the only saver they can use.

Any ideas.....
