WaitTOF -- wait for the top of the next video frame is documented on page A-11 of the RKM Vol. 2 (original edition, Addison-Wesley is probably on another page). I also saw it in the autodocs. -- Marco -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Marco Papa 3175 S.

I also saw it in the autodocs. Close! Thats's page A-141 (One Hundred Fourty One). It's part of the graphics library. (my RKM is rev 2 12.9.85) WaitTOF() waits for vertical blank to occur, and all other vertical blank servers to complete. Also available is WaitBOVP(viewport), which will wait for the BOTTOM of a viewport. -bryce-

Also, WaitTOF() actually sleeps the process while waiting, whereas the documentation states that WaitBOVP() *busy* waits while waiting. -Matt
