Hi Marcus, That's a very nice idea but it is obviously very dangerous in ST, given that it's dynamically typed. You'd be completely relying on the heuristics you gather over some time. Personally, I don't think it should be done in a completelly automated way, some old smalltalkers should always look at what is going to be cut off from the image before doing so. Cheers
