The About-box code for my application throws a picture resource onto the screen. It does this by reading the picture, interpreting the bounds rect at the beginning, creating a window of that size, and drawing the picture into the window. The window I'm using is the modal dialog one (I think it's done by WDEF 0). So, it has a black border and a thicker inner border. When I run my application on a Mac Plus, the picture fits the inner border exactly (as I'd expect). When on an SE/30, there's a gap of 5 pixels or so between the outer bounds of the picture and the inner window border, so I guess that the actual window is drawn slightly bigger (I can't do a side-by-side comparison, one Mac is at home).
