myrastport = window->RPort But, instead of drawing onto a requester, why not just design it with a paint program and have it come up 'pre-drawn'?

i think requesters are brought up in their own Layer, which in turn has its own rastport, so window->rastport doesn't work (besides, i tried it 8^]). i'm still a little uncomfortable with structures and pointers nested ad infinitum, more practise will take care of that. anyway, what i think i want looks something like MyRequester->RequesterLayer->LayerRastPort.

Works for me (then I stick requesters in their own window).
