I know how to open a window, but what do you mean a different dimension? Like size? Window.Open() If you need an explanation just ask.

Use Window.Open().
ex:

code:

var winID := Window.Open ("text")

Check the help file for it.
Hopefully, Flikerator will post a brand new, shiny tutorial on the topic soon. Very Happy

EDIT: heh. Confused

i want a new window to open but like make it a diff. dimension than the original window.. and like how would i put it into my prog.. i hav: (procedure) .... .... .... end (procedure) if ch :=('7') then (procedure) end if Also, is there a way of actually not opening a new window, but when the user presses '7' then the window size will change, instead of opening a new window?

Just posting so you know I didn't abandoned you, I will edit this with the answer.

Alright now since you have it in a procedure I will make one so it will be similar. Then loop it to show that it when you hit '7' it will change position. Its as easy as using View.Set()

code:

var ch : array char of boolean

View.Set ("position:center,bottom")

procedure windowchange
View.Set ("position:center,top")
end windowchange

loop
Input.KeyDown (ch)
if ch ('7') then
windowchange
end if
end loop

Now to change size it is very similar, like this;

code:

var ch : array char of boolean

[b]View.Set ("graphics:400,400")[/b]

procedure windowchange
[b] View.Set ("graphics:1280,720")[/b]
end windowchange

loop
Input.KeyDown (ch)
if ch ('7') then
windowchange
end if
end loop

I bolded the differences. If you need something else, it doesnt work, or such just say so and Ill help out.

EDIT AGAIN
Okay the bold didnt work but I will leave it in there anyway..lolz sry bout that Laughing
