Tedd, Why don't you make your windows resizeable ? Most programs do today. Your program starts with a small window that the user can resize and when the program quits, it remembers the size and optionally the position on the screen (in the prefs). Even Symantec does that :-) Sylvain > Hi gang: > > I've got a question regarding monitor size. > > My program MacBOSS is designed to work with the minimum size monitor (i.e., > the old toaster Macs).
