BlitzMax Forums/MaxGUI Module/Question?

The following is something I've been asked to post on the forum by a friend. He is a full BMax + MAXGUI owner. We're using maxgui,but have found what seems like a bug, in that whenever you move or resize a window, it totally blocks any events from being emitted and as a result the window basically becomes a garbled mess if you had any self-drawn gadgets, or resize beyond it's initial size. So, is this a patch/user code that prevents this from happening? Could I do it myself by editing some portion of maxgui? if not, i would like to create my own resize/move event system, and by pass maxgui. my problem is,how do i keep up the drag or resize when the mouse goes off the window surface? Is there is a windows api or cross-platform api that lets me get mouse position and button state even when the mouse creeps off the window? Any help would be appreciated. :) |

Use EventHooks to solve that problem. Its not a bug, its caused by Windows. |

You should probably have a look at Assari's EventHook MaxGUI tutorial - it really helped me understand how to go about using and implementing hooks to solve these sorts of probelms. |
