# Screens — OpenScreen, CloseScreen, SA_ Tags
|
||
|
||
## Overview
|
||
|
||
An Amiga **Screen** is a complete display context: a `ViewPort` with its own `BitMap`, colour palette, and resolution. Multiple screens can coexist and be dragged up/down to reveal each other.

||
SA_Title, "My Screen",
|

||
SA_Type, CUSTOMSCREEN,
|
||
SA_Pens, (ULONG)~0, /* use 3D pen defaults */
