I think this is because of the way Flash handles focus and the way we
listen for mouse events. kernel/swf/LzMouseKernel.as has some code that
attempts to match up events across frames.
Flash has had more modern APIs since version 6 - perhaps we should be
using them instead of the legacy Flash 5 movieclip events we're using now:

Sprites would need to instantiate a Button object when they're made
clickable adn register for the appropriate events.

Hi Max,
Perhaps you (or somebody on laszlo-dev) has some thoughts on
http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-7981. This is a swf8-only
issue (at least on a PC). If you open a window with a button that is
displayed under the mouse, the button requires 2 clicks if the focus has
been set to another element on the window. If the user moves the mouse a
single pixel, the button receives the very next click. At first I looked
for a general solution but right now I'm looking for a workaround in the
application. The other way to make it work is to NOT call setFocus() and
the button is clickable.
Andre added a simpler testcase that mostly uses native Flash code.
I have not found a workaround. I tried to simulate a mouseover event on
the button but I don't think Flash likes me hijacking mouse events.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
Phil
