Hi Sjoerd,

Well..my guess is that you won't find the resource either. If Metacard uses
anything like Supercard for it's palette window generation on Mac then it
Is not a "real" palette your seeing but a modified and generated metacard
resource. These are not really located in the floating layer of the system
in Supercard and probably neither in metacard. (Scott ?)
It is indeed quite dangerous to change window attributes in ResEdit.

May I suggest you open the window of-screen (loc -1000,-1000) set it to
palette and then show it at the right loc ?

How's holland these days ?
