And if there are a lot of windows overlapping the title :bar the refreshing can be annoyingly slow. Oh? I've always used the left mouse button for ClickUpFront. : : Plus when I let some Amiga-novice try out my computer, it doesn't make a :good impression that he can grind the system to a halt by pressing one of the :mouse buttons. I'd rather have minor irritating behaviour like this fixed :(eg the click-in-the-window behaviour fixed by Heliosmouse) than have to :remember (and explain to others) warning after warning of the type "don't do :X in this or that situation, but do it in this other situation". And this :isn't a system-wide thing, it can be fixed by adding a single word to a :source file. Then programs which don't use menus will ignore the RMB. In the :meantime, there are 3 different things that happen when you press: Tell him to ignore the RMB. Then, when he asks about menus, tell him that is what the RMB (and only what the RMB) is used for. :Anyway, it's a pet peeve of mine. : :John So I gathered. -Matt
