Does anyone really know what the aes call form_dial(0,...) does. The doc tells me it reserves area on the screen ?!. First time I thought the window rectangle lists will reflect this. So it should be possible to update a window which is under the reserved area ? This is not true (at least on version 1.2). What is the real meaning of that call? Which consequences has this call? Which consequences has omitting the call? Just to be complete form_dial(3,....) forces a redraw of all windows which intersect with rectangle given with form_dial(3,..). Thanks for your help Stefan
