Its annoying to see the Workbench requester and some other program requester opening on the left top side on the screen. Does someone know how to fix them to open always on the center? Thanks a lot in advance Juan

yes, ARQ 1.78. It does in addition very nice things with the boring standard requesters. Rafa <Motorola Inside> …via AutoPilot 1.72 from Berlin

Rafael, I have heard ARQ 1.78 is broken under AmigaDos 3.0. Just wish I had 3.0, but I do luv ARQ! …Steve Cruising on Autopilot from beautiful Coastal South Carolina

Me too! BTW, it seems that 3.1 is lready available for ALL Amigas! But a bit expensive. Let's see how it works (with Emplant as well, of course!) Regards Rafa <Motorola Inside> …via AutoPilot 1.72 from Berlin

Muchas gracias Rafael, ARQ 1.78 doesn't work on my A4000/040 WB3.0 machine :-(. Juan

Well ARQ 1.78 works on my A4000/040 and 3.0 :^) perfectly. <- James Scott -> Automated with AutoPilot!!!! Version 1.73

Juan, ARQ 1.78 appears to work fine on my 3.1 A4000/040 -sja

Steve, I could have swore that you were the one who stated ARQ didn't work with 3.x about 3 months ago…..hmmmm well I guess my mind is getting as old as my body :-\ …Steve Cruising on Autopilot from beautiful Coastal South Carolina

Steve, Nope, not I. I used to run it but stopped for some reason so earlier today I downloaded it again … so far, no problems under 3.1

>Does someone know how to fix them to open always on the center? download ReqTools in the AmigaTech forum. it's library that serves as a replacement for the standard amigados (asl) requesters and comes with a patch program that will intercept any calls to asl.library and routes them to reqtools. it comes with a preference program that you can use to have the requester open up where you want and can be as big or small as you like. or you can try other asl replacements kd_freq.library or my favorite, mfr. i'm sorry that i can'r remember any filenames of the top of my head, but they can be found in the amigatech libs using the search names "req" or "reqtools". bob 🙂 – on AutoPilot via Columbus, Ohio

Bob, thanks for your reply. It's right, ARQ doesn't work under WB3.0. I've tried out, no chance. The system crash often when the (nice) requester appears. Juan

Juan, I use ARQ 1.78 everyday on my A4000/040 with no problem. It runs from my WBStartup Draw. I don't get any crashes when requesters pop up. <- James Scott -> Automated with AutoPilot!!!! Version 1.73

James, thanks for information. Maybe its my Spectrum-board ??? ;-0 Juan

Juan, do you have any other program running in either your user-startup or WBStartup-drawer that also does something with the requesters? If not, what other programs are running. Perhaps one of them is the problem. Something is not right if it's working for others with 3.0 and it isn't for you. The Four Seasons of Southern California: Fire, Flood, Earthquake, and Riot.
