I know it's possible. I don't know that it's easy. There's a screenshot of a host window working on Pharo here...<div><br></div><div><a href="http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/3862">http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/3862</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>I think you maybe want to google on Host Window Plugin, I can't recall off the top of my head what it's called for sure, but I think that's it. What happens for a lot of folks, is we get over the difference and want to be in Squeak full screen all the time, because host windows don't really do much, and a SystemWindow, with some effort, will do the hokey pokey and turn itself around for you, I mean literally if you wanted to you could put legs on it and make it dance. The sky isn't the limit with Morphic, it's lower than that, but not much.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Another thing worth looking at in the interop department is VNC. It basically lets you do a video mode connection to another machine from within Squeak. In Croquet/Cobalt (and Teleplace,) people use this stuff for opening up Excel spreadsheets and Web browsers from within collaborative 3d virtual worlds. It's wild fun stuff:)<br>

Hi all.<br>
<br>
I'd like to make an operating system window, that can go outside of<br>
the "world." I found a nice Sample Image Viewer by Michael Davies. It uses a<br>
SystemWindow, but it also is constrained to be within the Squeak box. Do you<br>
understand what I am thinking of? Is it possible?<br>
<br>
Regards, Rick<br>
