Simplicity itself. When you drag an icon *near* the edge of a window (but still inside it), the window scrolls, but this doesn't change the on-screen position of the mouse pointer or the icon you're dragging. As soon as you drag the icon outside of the window, that window stops scrolling. You can do anything with a file icon under Finder 7 that you could under Finder 6. -- Internet: phaedrus@u.washington.edu (University of Washington, Seattle) The views expressed here are not those of this station or its management.
