Hi,

I am writing a program which uses many windows and each window has gadgets
in the borders and title bar.  Whenever the title bar in any window in my
custom screen is changed (either menu operations, or ACTIVEWINDOW or
INACTIVEWINDOW), The rest of the windows frames get redrawn.  This is very
annoying when I have more than 5 windows.

At first, I thought it was something I was doing wrong in my event handler,
but one day, due to a stupid mistake, a software error requester came up.
I selected a window in the custom screen to see what would happen, and as
before (even though the program was stopped) all of the window frames were
redrawn.

So, I am now convinced that it is not my code that is calling
RefreshWindowFrame();.  Does anybody have any ideas as to how I might fix
this?

Also, is it possible to make system requesters related to my program come up
in my custom screen instead of on the workbench screen?
