Re: [MiNT] Popups

Indeed, I wasn't clear. I meant Thing cannot use the AES popups (exclusively)

I don't know what method thing! uses for these popups, but the reason why the AES is blocked is that thing! locks the mouse with wind_update(BEG_MCTRL). As a test-app I used lines.app from atari, which stops as long as the popup is open. When I ignore the mouse-lock lines.app continues, but draws above the popup from thing!. Needs to be inspected if there is a way to solve this. Unfortunately lines.app does not work in MyAES: After resizing the window the background is corrupted, only lines.app is visible.

Anyway I suggest to stop further speculations for now :)
