        Brett,
                I think I use the View->DyOffset trick to center the screens
of the PAL version(s) of a program I did. . .if so, the background color shows
up on the bottom lines.
                Does your program re-direct requestors to your custom PAL
screen?  If I remember right, there may be some problems with that (due to
screen-to-fronting or loadviewing?). . .when the requestor pops up, your
screen may "pop up" to DyOffSet = 0. . .test error conditions that cause a
requestor to pop up to see if it happens (an NTSC machine should be fine for
this test).  Sorry about the vagueness, it's been a while.

                                        Greg M
