@Valuater

yes i know you want the child window and i'm really confused, i'm missing something here, i have 2 examoles of parent-child gui's (not my scripts) and neither one uses $WS_CHILD. i guess i'm gonna learn something today!

[Valuater 129]

The child windows are getting harder and harder to use

first, i could have 1 Object in a child ... now i cant get it to work with one object ( gafrost looked at it also )

now.. this.. and JdeB was here looking at this also...????
