Quick Birdie/Intuition question

OK I am finally happy with my A1200's classic OS3.1 configuration, with patches etc.

I have a small gripe with Birdie which you guys might know how to solve.

When I boot Workbench, the workbench window border does not display with the Birdie pattern (I know you can select backdrop but I like it). If I open a window or bring up a requester etc. the Birdie pattern instantly appears.

Is there a way of refreshing Birdie/Intuition to update the border at boot time?

No worries if not, the second I use it the pattern appears.

Thanks...

@A1200

Problem is Workbench appears before Birdie loaded its patterns. Consequence is that Birdie cant draw patterns to your Workbench screen.

@itix

That makes sense, I wonder if I put a small wait command on startup, or do a WBStartup icon for Birdie so it loads after Workbench...

Cheers mate, I will have a play.

@All

Well I added Wait 1 to the startup-sequence just before loadwb and it works flawlessly every time. Result!

Understood. Implementing a delay before launching Birdie could resolve the conflict with Workbench. Good luck!
