Ken, I haven't had time to really work with that project until this morning. Buffering the images worked well, but it seems that the only image type I can get to display right are gifs. Although, I have a buffered gif that just doesn't want to show up. It is

For reference, here's what you get in OS X for the various decorations properties (note that the "other" buttons are not invisible, they are just shown disabled): 'title' = minimize only 'minimize' = minimize only 'maximize' = minimize and maximize 'menu' = minimize only 'default' = minimize, maxi

Shari, The lookAndFeel only applies to the *content* of windows, not the window decorations themselves. So if someone is running an app with the lookAndFeel set to "Macintosh" in OSX, they should see the three jelly bean buttons in a titlebar that is an "OS X" titlebar. The only time they wouldn't

Thus far I've managed to avoid writing a single external since I started working with MC in '97 (I hired out the only one I couldn't make in native MetaTalk), so my knowledge of how MC works with externals is very limited. Hopefully somone with experience with this can take a moment to fill in the

One of my OSX beta testers mentioned that the red close button was missing. I asked her in more detail what she meant (I do not have OSX) and her explanation follows: in every window in OS X and in most apps that run native there is a red, a yellow and a green jelly bean button in the upper
