[comp.sys.amiga.programmer] GimmeZeroZero Intuimessages

mmaston@leland.Stanford.EDU (Michael Maston) (04/16/91)

OK, so I'm writing my application and am using two standard (non-GZZ) windows
and one GZZ (GimmeZeroZero) window...yes, I know I am bogging down the system
and all that by using GZZ's, but let's not get into that....

Anyway, I have all the flags (REPORTMOUSE) and Iflags (MOUSEBUTTONS) set so that I can get MOUSEBUTTON messages from my windows.  The two standard windows all
work great, but the GZZ window doesn't pass MOUSEBUTTON events.  In fact,
if I click in the window, the window title bar ghosts out as if I de-selected
it.  Now I know that GZZ windows are using two different bitmaps to allow me
avoid drawing over the gadget imagery, but does this mean I can't get messages
like this?  Basically, I am trying to retrieve the mouse pointer coordinates
when the user clicks the select button.

What am I missing here?  Please be gentle with me....
