Menu widths

---

When using the Motif GUI the message:



Name : Mform

Class : XmForm

Bailed out of edge synchronisation after 10,000 iterations



may appear in the graphics window. This is due to the Motif libraries incorrectly returning the size of the text in the menu and will be platform dependant. This can be overcome by scaling the menu width in the resource file as follows:



'Femsys.*.*.MenuWidthScale : value



where 1.0 < value < 2.0 is used to force the menu to increase its width.
