TotalView News

Consult the Etnus Web site at http://www.etnus.com for a discussion of the new features contained within TotalView. If you used Version 4 of TotalView, here are other changes:

Commands That No Longer Exist

The following Release 4.0 commands have no equivalent in Release 5.0:

  • Clear All Elog
  • Find Interesting Relative
  • Open Action Points Window
  • Reexecute Last Save Window
  • Run TimeScan
  • Set PC to Absolute Value
  • Set Process Program Group
  • Suppress All Elog
  • Unsuppress All Elog

For information on the relationship between TotalView Release 4 and TotalView Release 5 commands, see the TotalView Upgrading Guide.

Using the Mouse

The way you use the mouse differs in Version 5. Chapter 2 of the TotalView Users Guide describes usage in more detail. TotalView now follows Motif guidelines or performs a related action, as follows:

  • The left mouse button selects. Double-clicking dives.
  • The middle mouse button pastes text.
  • The right mouse button brings up a context sensitive menu.

X Resources and Preferences

While TotalView still allows you to place directives within an X resource .Xdefaults file, the role of this file is greatly diminished. X resources that dealt with the TotalView window are ignored at Release 5. Many other resources have been deprecated because you can now specify these attributes using the File > Preferences command.
