Suggestion

Posted by Kishori Sharan on April 06, 2001 at 1:32 PM

Mouse pressed event will always occurs before mouse clicked. I would suggest you to go by only one way. However, you can do your way too. In mouse pressed event store the x, y coordinates and a flag that mouse pressed occurred. In mouse clicked just compare x, y with x, y stored from mouse pressed. If they are same it means you have to go by mouse clicked event else you have to go by mouse pressed and released .

Thanx
