Is there a way to put more text in the title bar of
a Win programme than is allowed by the Standalone Application Settings?

Hi Ross,

not sure what you mean exactly? Standalone Application Settings?
You can enter text for the TITLE of a stack in the property inspector for that stack.
I think the limit for this is 16bit/64kb.

And what is that good for, if you allow this question? :D

Hi Ross,

aha, hm, better use some custom properties!
That's exactly what they were made for! :D
...
## Set:
set the cRegCode of this stack to Variable_that_holds_the_reg_etc
...
## Get
put the cRegCode of this stack into Variable_that_holds_the_reg_etc
...
You get the picture.

My solution is:

set the title of me to the title of me & " Hello World"

then when the programme closes reset it from wherever
you put it at programme startup.
