The mouse events are very low-level and may fire when you do not expect it. rollOver and rollout are more predictable.

Normally when MOUSE_OUT is created the mouse coordinates passed are outside the HBox which is my expectation as well but sometimes MOUSE_OUT gets created with coordinates inside the HBox (I check with "hitTestPoint"). Usually when this happens the mouse is just about to leave the HBox so it's still somehow ok. What's stranger though is that sometimes I get MOUSE_OUT when simply moving the mouse within the HBox and this is really a problem. Have you guys experienced something similar? Any guesses what could cause such behavior? BTW I am not sure if this problem is related to the fact this is an HBox. I haven't tested with other containers. Thanks, Rondo
