At some time (I wasn't able to reproduce this) my NEXT icon of the Workspace Manager was replaced by the picture of a camera. There were several programs active under which grab. Can anyone tell me what this means? Gerben

That comes from the Grab application in /NextDeveloper/Demos, when you've asked Grab to take a picture of something. I forget the details, but it's something like you've told Grab you want a picture of some window, and the icon turns to a camera until you select the window (or whatever it is) that you want Grab to take a picture of. It's Grab's way of telling you that it's waiting for some indication of what it should grab. - - - - - - - - Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@rpi.edu or gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA
