... just got a look at a beta sample of Hyper-Woop-De-Do 2.0. Looks pretty neat-o 'cept for a few things. It look like ( at least from what i saw ) that there will not be any scroll bars for variable sized windows !!! The interface for scrolling was much like the one that the original MacPaint used - you move the visible area around with a pointer. Yes , that means NO SCROLL BARS !!! ( at least in the version I saw ) ... more info to come. - G -

Correct. However, we think you will like the other ways we are giving your to scroll card windows. Please reserve judgement... Steve Maller Keeper of the XCMDs I yam what I yam. Apple Computer

One of the things I realized was how confusing it could be to an 'average' ( tee-hee ! ) user if they encountered a stack that had multiple scroll- ing fields; all them scroll bars all over the place could be darn confusing !!!!! ... question ... what 'other' ways ARE you giving us , pray tell ? :-) - G -
