Avi, you are still missing what happened. It's not me that wants the AB open and minimized--and as far as I have read this small thread, *no one* has expressed the desire to have it open and minimized. It's Livio who had the problem. And his problem was that he wanted the Full-Screen dialog box *reduced* in size: That is, he wanted to see the button with the two boxes as its icon beside the "X" button for closing, when the dialog box was at Full Screen. He had no such button. I found I was lacking the button also--first time I ever experienced that. So I found a way to get that button. It worked for me and it worked for Livio. It does not work for you. And it messed up the appearance of Roelof's dialog box. The lack of the button is the bug, if bug it is. Re-size by dragging was still available. When I did that, the button reappeared for me.

We were trying to place a button, not to re-size. Re-sizing replaced the button for Livio and me. It took all the colors out of Roelof's dialog window. I wouldn't like having everything blue, either, myself! I run Windows Classic Theme under XP Home, SP2, and I *like* that red background behind the "X" (close) button. It is so minor. You're right, we should probably call it an "ant." Do bats eat ants? I am an aunt! <shudder> Will a bat prey on me? <vbg> -- Best regards, Mary The Bat 3.0.0.11 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.00.11 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
