Thanks
Actually, when the functionality is activated, it checks if a field is under the cursor. If not, it simply do a 5 letters scan around the mouse click for F1 to F24. I went for the simplest. :) It is why it is "disablable". I consider that the user knows where to click.
I never even thought about that. There is the KISS, keep it simple stupid, rule again.
Good thinking there.

When my checkin is done, it'll be in activex/Term5250.cpp in CTerm5250::OnLButtonDown.
For the continued field, it's still the most basic; i.e. it works on the field it needed to :)

Congratulations on the work. The continued field support was the first thing that I implemented as well in tn5250j. Keep it up guys.

What was the formula you used to recognize the keys? This was a pain for me.
