The set capture needs to be set after receiving the
message WM_MOUSELEAVE - not before. The capture needs
to be released when WM_MOUSEENTER is received.
Sometimes receiving these messages can be problematic
and and alternate approach can be used - see code
segment below.
case WM_MOUSEMOVE :
{
POINTS point;
point.x = GET_X_LPARAM(lParam);
point.y = GET_Y_LPARAM(lParam);
CRect rClient;
GetClientRect(rClient);
if (rClient.PtInRect(point))
{
SetCapture(); // Mouse in
}
else
{
ReleaseCapture(); // Mouse out
}
break;
}

Hi,
I tried this once more as:
if(nMsg == WM_MOUSEMOVE) {
CRect tree_rect;
m_activecombo->m_treectrl.GetClientRect(&tree_rect);
if(tree_rect.PtInRect(point)) {
::ReleaseCapture();
}
}
else {
::SetCapture(m_activecombo->m_treectrl.GetSafeHwnd());
}
}
The problem is that, once i release the capture, i dont get any more messages,
so SetCapture() never gets called annd for the same reason mouse leave also
doesn't works.
