I have an application that interactively manipulates DECwindows objects (it's a high-level object editor). There is a problem with list boxes-- they seem to be the only object that masks mouse button events from the application. I suppose this is because the designers thought applications would only be interested in the end result, an item selection, but in my case this poses a real problem. The only mouse events that seem to make it through are motions across the parent when the drag is started on the parent. If I click and drag on the list box-- nothing. Making the list box insensitive does not improve the situation. Any ideas how I can get around this obstacle? Thanks in advance... eric@npri.com << OR >> ...uunet!uupsi!npri6!eric Eric C.
