MultiCX can do it, too: MultiCX. Although it's of no use if you don't like programs such as MCP and MultiCX

Thorham this looks good

Thanks -Im just not a fan of MCP

This looks like it will do the trick -but if anyone knows the name of a one off program im still intrested.

Also in your WB snapshot - where can I find that Directory Opus Icon?

Here's a good utility whose only purpose is solid window dragging and resizing, MagicLayers - http://aminet.net/package/gfx/misc/ML11

If you would like to move your windows outside the Workbench desktop area, you could also install PowerWindows - http://aminet.net/package/util/misc/PowerWindowsNG

Hey Cammy, they look cool.

I'll add them as enable/disable options in the ClassicWB packs if they test out ok.

Get it here: DirectoryOpus.zip (it's only the icon, not the full program, badly chosen file name

).

Ive just tried this and after playing with all the other tools opaque features this is the fastest - Thanks Cammy

i've never tried tried http://aminet.net/package/gfx/misc/ML11. but someone told me http://aminet.net/package/util/misc/PowerWindowsNG is a real dirty hack, so if ML11 works fine and ist's all you need then please tell us how it works for you.

PowerWindowsNG is a bit of a dirty hack -PowerWindows standard isnt so bad but more limited, off screen dragging is a nice feature but the opaque features are a bit slow on my real Amiga -MagicLayers works nicely on my A1200.
