One poster seemed to sigh in resignation saying, "When you need them, you need them". So, I'm wondering why there is a problem with them? I find it very difficult to make any decent looking window without checking off composite on the widows properties. You can't even have one single disclosure triangle without losing aesthetics. At the same time, making that triangle fit leads to a custom canvas going batty when composite is checked. Is this an issue lots of people run into? Or do you just stick with the old pinstripe backgrounds rather than try to make an app look up-to-date? Is this something RB is working on? Has this been a problem for a long time? Or am I missing some return true that would fix everything? I'm just trying to wrap my head around the phenomenon. It just seems like kind of a lose-lose situation. _________________ RB 2007 r5 Standard Release.
