Matt, I posted a complete example, in which the subwindow
was shown before it was grabbed. I just tried the flush()
loop you suggested; it has no effect whatsoever.
Previous posters have said that grab() isn't supposed to work
for windows not descended from the "main" window. Do you disagree?
Best,
Stan
