I don't want to fix this bug (as I am already running under 2.0), but I'd *REALLY LOVE* to have this cute little program you described. If anybody knows how to get this - please email me (or email me the uuencoded program, if it is not too long) Thanks in advance, Holger -- Holger Lubitz | holgerl@amiux.uucp Kl.

If anybody >Holger sorry mail bounced.... You can find it in the ab20 arc's (128.155.23.64) as "/incoming/amiga/nextwin.lzh". The program basically erases the window and lets you drag a bob around. Two problems: 1) Annoying delay while the prog closes the window and displays the bob 2) If your window touches any side of the screen it is dropped and unselected, making it hard to place a window exactly in the corner of the screen. well, nice talking to you.... jm sunyab

It is as if the nextwindow hack is intercepting the click, and the program never sees it. Well, that's what happened to me....
