adding color picker to old program

I'm trying to put the MaxGUI Color Picker into an old program that uses the usual " While not escape key " main loop. This almost works, but I can't get back to the main loop after calling the color picker. Global R% = 0, G% = 0, B% = 255 Graphics 800,600,0 SetClsColor(R,G,B) Cls ; Flip While Not KeyHit(KEY_ESCAPE) If KeyDown(Key_E) End If KeyDown(KEY_C) Then Pick_Color Wend Function Pick_Color() If RequestColor(R,G,B) R=RequestedRed() G=RequestedGreen() B=RequestedBlue() SetClsColor(R,G,B) Cls ; Flip EndIf End Function Do I have to call some gadget first? And if so, do I need to free resources when I'm done with the color picker? What is the minimum I need to get the above to work? Thanks, -Lee

Add a FlushKeys after (or before, doesnt matter) calling your Pick_Color function.
