[comp.sys.amiga.tech] Intuition

 For a french newspaper dedicated to Amiga:

  I would like to known the meanning of the flags LEFTBORDER, RIGHTBORDER,
   BOTTOMBORDER & RIGHTBORDER in the gadget structure, in the file
   <intuition.h>. It seems that these flags make a link between the gadget
  size and the window border size but I had some funny results. The Intuition
  reference manual did not learn me a lot of things. If you know the solution,
  please write to me.              
                                                 Thank you very much

I have a superbitmap window. An assembly lang. routine is operating
directly on the bits of the bitmap. Now and then I copy
the bitmap into the window with CopySBitMap ( I'm not sure about the
routine name but its the one that updates the layer to match the bitmap)
I discovered that it is necessary to LockLayer(mywindowslayer)
and then catch MENUVERIFY|SIZEVERIFY. 
Heren lies the problem: How do I know when the MenuEvent is
done and I can LockLayer safely?(ie. without deadlocking Intuition)
problem two: I want the window dragable, how do I DRAGVERIFY?

anyhelp would be apppreciated.

Is it necessary to surround the assemblylang routine with
LockLayer/UnlockLayer?
