Yes, this is true. No exposure events are generated for this action, since nothing becomes exposed that wasn't already exposed. Question: I want an Expose event in all cases, i.e. whenever the window is resized, I want a guaranteed Expose event. This is like saying "I want a guarantee of rain when it is sunny" ... Are you sure you want this? /jordan
