thanks for the advise, one of the site i visited instructed me to do the following:

1. Create the backdrop images. They can be bitmap or pixmap files.
2. Place the backdrops in one of the following directories. (You may have to create the directory.)

System-wide backdrops: /etc/dt/backdrops
Personal backdrops: HomeDirectory/.dt/backdrops

3. Choose Restart Workspace Manager from the Workspace menu.

and know what? it didn't work Smilie

any good suggestions? i already created backdrops directory as my personal backdrops. i also tried looking for the system-wide backdrops and it does not seem to exist Smilie

help.

DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions(library call)							       DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions(library call)

NAME

       DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions -- remove a window's workspace functions

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Dt/Wsm.h>
       void DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions(
       Display *display,
       Window window);

DESCRIPTION

       The  DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions  function  removes a window's workspace functions.  When DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions removes workspace
       functions, the window menu for the window the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), displays does not have the entries that allow the	window	to
       occupy a different set of workspaces, occupy all workspaces, or be removed from the current workspace.

       The display argument is the X display.

       The window argument is the window to have its workspace functions disabled.

RETURN VALUE

       The DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions function returns no value.

APPLICATION USAGE

       The application must call DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions before the window is mapped.  The CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), only looks at the
       workspace function information at the time the workspace manager manages the window.  If the CDE workspace manager,  dtwm(1),  is  managing
       the  window,  the  application  must  withdraw the window (see XWithdrawWindow(3)), remove the workspace functions, and map the window once
       again.
