Just like someone else > mentioned earlier (WRT OS X) in this thread. This behavior is broken nonetheless, don't you think? Under X11 the grab equivalent is called "override redirect", and is indeed a mayor source of problems. The proper way of fixing menus&company is really simple in reality: use the proper WM support of "popup" window classes. I have some idea of how we could do this on X11, and maybe on Carbon, but I have no experience in this area for Windows. BUT, 1- I'm not sure how this would play with the actual even model (ie: does it would break the API in some way?) 2- I'm not sure we can do that for 1.1.8 without breaking the ABI. While I'm not advocating the use of grab, I still would like grab and warp pointers to be available if possible (mainly for GL programs). _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
