1.how to get the item under the mouse pointer in a treectrl/or in other gadgets? (eg. i want get the selecting item when i rightclick mouse in the treectrl)

2.how to use wxmouseevent properly? what kind of gadget can i
assign the event to ?(like i can use wxmousevent directly with wxGLcanvas,but i can't use it directly with treectrl?when connect mouse event with treectrl nothing happend!)

also there are two connect functions:connect/connect any,what's the difference?

sorry if the questions are "stupid",i am new to wxwidget,can't find more tutorial about wxEvent except brucy's!!

Untested but should be ok (he says hopefully!)

Method OnInit()
  Connect(GetId(),wxEVT_COMMAND_TREE_ITEM_RIGHT_CLICK, _OnRightSelect)

Function _OnRightSelect(_event:wxEvent)
   TTreeView(_event.parent).OnRightSelect(wxCommandEvent(_event))

Method OnRightSelect(_event:wxCommandEvent)
  Local item:wxTreeItemId = GetSelection()

thanks,
but i got an easy way, using wxtreeevent,with this i can easily
catch the selecting item,also the position point,

just use WxTreeEvent(event).getitem().

Connect() expects a window ID - this allows you to attach an event to a specific widget. You can define the ID for a widget when you create it.

ConnectAny() doesn't require a window ID. You usually use this if you are Connecting an event to the current widget, as opposed to a child widget.

ConnectRange() lets you catch a range of window IDs. Useful for menus or toolbars, where you are more likely to have sequences of IDs.
