But remember that most programs erase their windows to white before drawing. (which is not correct they should erase to the backcolor). You can see this in the finder when its windows refresh. Try this, in the Kolor cdev change the "Background fill" to any color that you want. Then resize the window. Watch the color appear and then get erased to white. The Growincon and the space between the double line is the background color. Matt Mora SRI International
