[what's a few lines among friends] I was working with a full-screen window last nite (640x200), and couldn't seem to make it SMART_REFRESH. I discovered that a call to SetWrMsk(RPort,0x0008) seemed to make it behave as SIMPLE_REFRESH instead. So, in order to fix that I reset the write mask back at the end of my routine and everything is cool. But wait! There's more! It started up again later on in the code, but this time it was a ClipBlit() that was doing strange and questionably legal things. Like, wow, what gives? I checked the Wlayer flags, but they don't change. When I use ClipBlit(), I can hit the right mouse button, the menu-bar comes up, and goes away as one would expect when I release it. But, if I go up and activate a menu, the image of the menu-bar image isn't removed. -- *** mike (starship janitor) smithwick *** "You can fool some of the people all of the time, or all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool Mom".
