    I don't know if i'm only one for who this is annoying, but there's problem with ASL. When i must choose something, there's no name visible for devices/drives, because defaut field is too small.

    Is there possiblity to add for ASL (and overall, for MUI requesters and lists, e.g. nlist) possiblity of snapshot field sizes?

    In this case my opinion is exactly the same as Solo_Kazuki. Is there someting which makes it impossible to add working snapshot gadget?

    This is a small hint for MOS Team programmers.

    Code:
    DoMethod(Wi_aslwinobj, MUIM_Window_Snapshot, TRUE);

    wi_aslwinobj have to have MUIA_Window_ID set to a non NULL value to allow snapshot method to work.

    And now only you need to do is to compile ;)

    I miss draggable screens... and do you? I know I'm in a minority unfortunately.

    don't you think they would know that? :)
    But anyway, that's not the issue here. ASL windows can perfectly be snapshot (position, dimensions, and also icons sizes/columns order and hidden/shown state/... on a per-directory basis). But the previous posts mention the unability to snapshot the columns widths.

    With current mui list class, it's just not possible to retrieve/set this information. It might come at some point though.
