My other problem is getting a file requester to open on (the window in) my CUSTOMSCREEN. It opens behind my screen, on WorkBench, instead. I will try your suggestions, but I find no ASLFR_Window tag mentioned on a quick look in RKM. Only the ASL_Window that I have been using. And so far I haven't been able to find either an ASLFR_Screen or an ASL_Screen, but there is a WA_CustomScreen that is certainly worth a try. Meanwhile, just in case my problem is more fundamental, let me rehash what I have as of now. I open a custom screen 640X400 with NS_EXTENDED ored with CUSTOMSCREEN, and dc.l SA_Width,#-1 dc.l SA_Height,#-1 dc.l TAG_DONE tagged on at the end. I use OpenScreen() and OpenWindow() for 1.3 compatibility, and add tags to fix certain things that don't come out right otherwise in 2.04-2.1. I save the screen structure pointer in a memory location my assembler lets me call NSptr, which coincides with Screen in my NewWindow structure. Shortly thereafter I open the window, with WA_Borderless tagged TRUE (and followed by a TAG_DONE at the end). (This is where I'm thinking of trying to use WA_CustomScreen, though I'm not sure how.) I save the pointer at a random location named NWptr. In any event, my screen and window open just the way I want them to. Meanwhile (providing I got ver 36 or better of dos.library) I have opened the asl.library and save ASLbase. Then move.l ASL_FileRequest movea.l aslreqtag,a1 SYS AllocAslRequest([ASLbase]) [= jsr LVO_…] move.l d0,ASLfr and far below in my data storage: aslreqtag: dc.l ASL_Hail,frtit dc.l ASL_Window,NWptr dc.l TAG_DONE frtit: dc.b "JIStoJi File Requester",0 cnop 0,4 Apparently the "movea.l aslreqtag,a1" is not being understood, because when the user calls up a requester it comes out with the standard title on the WorkBench screen. – via Whap!
