Unable to create scalable window?

I've tried this:

Graphics 240,320,16,3

...but it doesn't work. It tries to go fullscreen, but it should just open a scalable window!

Any ideas?

or do this :)

appwindow=CreateWindow("blah",0,0,640,480,0,3)

appcanvas=CreateCanvas(0,0,640,480,appwindow)
SetGadgetLayout appcanvas,1,1,1,1

SetBuffer CanvasBuffer(appcanvas)
Text 80,80,"Booh!"
Oval 300,200,70,60
FlipCanvas appcanvas

Repeat
	WaitEvent()
	If EventID()=$803 quit=True
Until quit
End

Thanks, I have switched to CreateWindow rather than Graphics, as the "3" option in that seems to be baulked.

I read one of the updates changed '3' to something with the screen flipping, but the docs still have the old meaning.

Thanks, I'll try to get the docs changed.
