I've written a program that uses a requester and I'm having a bit of a problem.
The requester consists of 4 gadgets, all of which are ENDGADGETs. It appears
in a window containing some other gadgets. It is triggered by a gadget
activation in the window. The problem: when 2 rapied gadget picks are grouped
together, the first one calling up the requester, the program gets confused and
thinks the user has picked one of the requester gadgets. It procedes on
through the program, and my window gets closed by the program, leaving this
requester sitting in thin air. How can I prevent this? I've even got a loop
right before the requester designed to clear the message port, of the form:
while (msg = GetMsg(wind->UserPort)) {
ReplyMsg(msg);
}
Help!! Thanks in advance.

I've even got a loop Try using the REQVERIFY IDCMP flag. You get an IntuiMessage, when Intuition wants to set up a requester, and it will wait for a Reply() before setting it up. In the meantime you can clean out the Messages in peace. -- +-----------------------------------------------------+---------------+ | Lars R.
