Another question in the category of "things you probably shouldn't do in a DA, but you find you have to." I have a multiple-window desk accessory, and I want to use "hot" clicks. I.e., I want clicks on windows that aren't in front to be passed to the DA so that I can do more with them than just bring the window to the front. The Finder uses hot clicks to let you select icons that aren't in the front window -- I'd like to do something similar in my DA. The problem is that when SystemClick sees a click on a DA window that isn't in front, it simply selects the window. So I never see the mousedown event. Is there a way around this, short of patching SystemClick? If I did patch SystemClick, how would I distinguish my DA windows from other DA windows? Jim Matthews Dartmouth Software Development
