[comp.windows.x] Fastest way to track the mouse?

ham@polya.Stanford.EDU (Peter R. Ham) (11/20/88)

I want to drag object around inside a window by clicking and dragging.
What's the fastest way to do this smoothly?

What I'm doing now is selecting for motion events when the first
button is down.  When I receive a motion event, I read up all of the motion 
events currently on the queue and the call XQueryPointer to get the
latest position of the mouse.  Still this looks a little jagged.


I tried selecting with PointerMotionHintMask but never ended up getting
any motion events.
