Sorry to answer myself again, but I "used the source" and from what I can tell, Fl::add_timeout() simply inserts the timeout and doesn't execute it (yet). So, using 0.0 is ok since the Fl::run() will not process the timeout till it finishes processing the FL_PASTE event. Is this correct? I would like to write an article with example concerning DND in fltk. I would like to cover DND receiving first since I think its the easiest of the two (the other being DND sending) initially understand. I would include my Fl_DND_Box widget. Would this be useful or should I not bother? Thanks. -- Alvin _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
