If I do a GrabButton on a window is it possible to do an ungrab after receiving the buttondown event? Will that ungrab stop the active grab that was triggered via the passive grab and not allow the upevent to get passed to my client? What I am attempting to do is passive grab for the buttondown, once it is recieved I want to ungrab, then actively grab the pointer for motion and downevents, finally I want to throw away the upevent related to the first buttondown (actually I don't want to recieve it at all). What seems to be happening is that the ungrab button never gets recognized until after the upevent is recieved (thereby deactivating the active grab initiated by the passive grab). My active grab pointer events are sent until the upevent which turns them off. Any advice? Mike Powers powers.wbst139@xerox.,com
