When Intuition resizes a window, it can very easily check to see if all of the window will be off-screen and move the window to a place where enough of it is on the screen to allow the mouse to grab it. The Mac will do this if you try to move the title bar of a window off the top of the screen. Don't forget it is Intuition that ultimately controls window operations, *not* your application. --M Michael Portuesi / Carnegie Mellon University ARPA/UUCP: mp1u+@andrew.cmu.edu BITNET: rainwalker@drycas "Memories are uncertain friends, when recalled by messages" -- OMD, "Messages"
