From: John Draper The Amiga Forum · Programming January 1, 1987 12:03 AM
I'm not using the console, I'm working on a high performance productivity tool, and I'm using Intuition. I'm really looking for a few un-resolved areas where documentation fails to completly describe how to use it.

From: John Draper The Amiga Forum · Programming December 31, 1986 5:22 AM
I'm trying to set a smaller area in an Intuition window to render text to. I want the text to remain "clipped" into a specified rectangle. I looked in the documentation and see no function that can set up a clipped region. I assume that I must use the Layers…
