All,

I'm not sure if this is possible, but I'm wondering if there's any way
a Flash movie can track mouse movements/actions outside of the browser
window.

Specifically, I'm working on an RIA which uses a scrollbar along the
right edge of the window. If the user, while dragging the scrollbar,
moves the mouse outside of the window, the Flash movie stops tracking
the mouse position, and the scrollbar stops moving. The scrollbar
jumps if the user drags the mouse back into the window at a lower or
higher position.

(By comparison, an HTML scrollbar doesn't suffer this limitation - the
scrollbar continues to move even as the mouse is dragged outside of
the window.)

Is there a way around this?

Cheers,
Matt Stuehler
