Dialogs (and other miscellaneous sink holes) have their own event loops. If an event is caught by another event loop, you will not see it. Another way to see events is to register for sysNotifyEventDequeuedEvent, which will allow you to preview events as they are dequeued by you or whomever. Be careful, because while registered, every dequeued event will cause a system notification to be broadcast. On Fri, Mar 27, 2009 at 2:29 AM, Darren <[email protected]> wrote:
