Since this procedure has no idea what is being displayed, it would have to simply store the bitmapped image for the entire window (not just the visible part); this could take a very unreasonable amount of space. The reason Sx doesn't provide such a beast is that you can do a much better job yourself, since you can represent the window contents with a more compact data structure. -- Scott
