I'm writing a program, and I'd like to use the screen title bar to display information. Is there a way to do this? I don't plan on using menus, if that makes any difference. Also, if anybody has the 'correct' way to open a DiskFont, I'd like to see some code for that also. I remember that ?C. McManis? used to post every once in a while on this subject. Thank you, ____ /Campbell@cup.portal.com TCampbell@cup.portal.com

You can use SetWindowTitles() to change the text in the screen title bar, but that doesn't allow for any graphics per se. I have done it (and I don't know how legal it is) this way.. struct Screen *screen; struct RastPort *barrp; . . . barrp=screen->BarLayer->rp; Jon -- | Jon Potter | | I'd really like to | | P.O.
