Using the Old Root Window
If debugger scalability is not a concern and you prefer the Root Window prior to version TotalView 8.15, you can reinstate it. Note, however, that the old Root Window is deprecated and may not be supported in future versions.
To start TotalView using the old Root Window, pass TotalView the -oldroot command option:
totalview -oldroot
To always use the old Root Window by default, set the state variable -TV::GUI::old_root_window to true for use when initializing TotalView:
dset TV::GUI::old_root_window true
