Customizing CDE background
i have a question about setting the background in a workspace in CDE.
I have CDE runnning on Solaris 8 here at work and I want to use some images I have as the background in or two of the workspaces. When I use xv on the image and choose the option the option from the Display Menu -> Root: center tiled , the image does not appear as the background. Why is this?
Is there a workaround for this?

dtwsmsetcurrentworkspace
DtWsmSetCurrentWorkspace(library call) DtWsmSetCurrentWorkspace(library call)
NAME
DtWsmSetCurrentWorkspace -- set the current workspace
SYNOPSIS
#include <Dt/Wsm.h>
int DtWsmSetCurrentWorkspace(
Widget widget,
Atom aWorkspace);
DESCRIPTION
The DtWsmSetCurrentWorkspace function works with the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), and sets the current workspace. Applications can use
this function to switch from the current workspace to another workspace.
The widget argument is a realized widget on the screen of interest.
The aWorkspace argument is the name (in X atom form) of the workspace to be made current.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the DtWsmSetCurrentWorkspace function returns Success; otherwise, it returns a value not equal to Success.
APPLICATION USAGE
If the DtWsmSetCurrentWorkspace function is not successful, the most likely reason for failure is that the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1),
is not running. The DtWsmSetCurrentWorkspace function requires a widget. A gadget is not acceptable for the widget argument.
DtWsmSetCurrentWorkspace sends a message to the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), to switch workspaces. If the workspace name is not valid,
no action is taken and the workspace manager reports no error.
