I think you could do something like…
On event call("myeventhandler")
---
`myeventhandler
Case of
:(mousedown) `or maybe ( (mousedown) & (modifiers ?? command key bit))
If(<>top=0)
<>Top:=mouseX
<>Left:=mouseY
Else
<>bottom:=mousex
<>right:=mousey
Move object(*;"myhighlightbox";<>top;<>left;<>bottom;<>right)
End if
Else
If(<>top#0)
move object(*;"myhighlightbox";9999;9999)
<>top:=0
end
End case
---
Does this make sense? First, read the On Event Call docs to learn the secret
key command to disable otherwise you may lock yourself out. And I'm sure I
butchered the syntax for move-object.

A pointer to which commands to read up on would be good enough (I hope)
