The problem turned out to be a misunderstanding on my part.. Something that *WASN'T TOO DIFFICULT* considering that the documentation on things like SubstructureRedirect and SubstructureNotify is somewhat vague. Could someone please post a concise and accurate description of what they do? What if the client selects SubstructureRedirect on the root window as well as several subwindows? How exactly is "redirection" defined? If I have 3 subwindows under the root, and I select Substructure- Redirect on one, and on root for the rest, what happens? By the way, Bob, let it not be felt that your efforts are unappreciated. I know that everyone and their brother is bugging the hell out of you and that your bloodstream is probably 90% caffine by now... I'll try to be a little more precise in the future to spare your blood pressure. Jordan
