Does anyone knows a recent version were grab(1) actually works? It would help me a lot debugging it.

Besides, I've found a program of mine that made use of grab and warp pointer (not using fltk). Some weird arcball control. grab was sometimes required to make point selection a lot easier (without requiring to click or move to specific points) and the cursor was repositioned to do things like the "truly unbounded roller" were the mouse would never hit a border. However it's a long time that I don't use it anymore. _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
