Docs notwithstanding, I would advise against using the type to store any additional information. I suspect that the fltk-2 code is "fragile" in this respect, and am not all that sure about the fltk-1.x code either... If you are making your own subclass anyway, just add some private data (or even public!) to your class to store the extra info. there and leave the type mechanism alone. Also note that fltk-2 is not actively maintained, so it is unlikely ever to be "fixed". You might be better off with fltk-1.1 or fltk-1.3.
