There are also other reasons to use show(argc,argv) for the *first* window shown, e.g. loading of system colors and such. But (and this is untested) you can always show your first window with win->show(1, argv); // note: argc is 1 or even set up your own argument vector, thus losing all FLTK default switches, but if you don't care... Note that this is untested, but it should work IMHO. Albrecht _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list fltk@easysw.com http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
