## 35 Dirty Tricks

This chapter describes some of the routines that may be used in special situations where more power or flexibility from Forms Library is needed. These routines are classified as "dirty tricks" either because they can easily mess up the normal operation of Forms Library or they depend on internal information that might change in the future, or they rely too much on the underlying window systems. Thus whenever possible, try not to use these routines.
