I have the 1.3 release of the RKM Libraries & Devices, which explains in somewhat better detail what the Layers library does. Basically, if what you need is _rectangular_ clipping, then the Layers library does it for you. You create a "Layer" (i.e. clipping rectangle) of the desired size, and then draw to its RastPort (NOT the window's RastPort). The Layers library will clip to the RastPort. (DISCLAIMER: I've read this section of the RKM, but I haven't played with it. So my advice my worth the price you paid for it.) Lee Willis
