Hate to sound naive, but how does one draw into a requester? Or does one? Since there is no RPort member of the Requester structure, how (if you can) do you use simple graphics primitives within a Requester? Respond via Email, if you can help it. A lot of traffic lately!

Since there is no RPort member of the Requester structure, how >(if you can) do you use simple graphics primitives within a Requester? After some discussion with Peter Cherna, it seems that the answer is: don't render into requesters. It is not supported. Under 1.3 you can use the gadget list, borders, etc to place graphics into the requester. These are automatically refreshed when necessary. Under 2.0, requesters may be made simple refresh and a list of images may be attached directly to the requester. These images along with all of the previously supported imagery will be refreshed when necessary. Beware when using simple refresh requesters--the refresh events never get through to the application. Use the supported imagery and let Intuition manage the refresh process. -- -- Ken Farinsky - CATS - (215) 431-9421 - Commodore Business Machines uucp: ken@cbmvax.commodore.com or ...{uunet,rutgers}!cbmvax!ken bix: kfarinsky
