CICS EXPLORER Colouring background of views

As discussed in several talks with IBM , we would like to have the CICS Explorer views backgrounds coloured in the following manner :

Give each view of the CICS Explorer its own Background Colour depending on its function :

CICS Operation functions different from Definition functions . All the ‘'plugged in Stuff ‘' like CTG and z/OS also different from each other.

The reason for this is : handling and overview, more easy qualifying whether user work in edit mode under Definitions or for example viewing mode under Operations an so on.

Mark the tab signs and the Language of the tabs also different – i.e red for tab background if editing, another colour for browsing .

    This requirement has been re-evaluated. Looking at current plans, it is not likely that this would be implemented within the timeframe of the next two CICS TS releases, or interim Explorer drops. Correspondingly this requirement is being rejected. You have an opportunity to resubmit in eighteen months time if you wish it to be considered then.
