it *does* nothing to the sbs though, so how can it be a property of

that screen

and they would be negatively affected how if the place they get their

I dont change anything of the sort.. what I do get rid of is
inconsistancies in the current code.... quick without thinking or
checking anything what viewport can screen X expect if a sbs is
loaded? your answer is "well it depends *what* screen X is... it
shouldnt!
