Similar to what I put in another message that I just sent in...

If you maintain a global variable to keep track of the graphic that is
set to blue - then, whenever you set a new graphic to blue, you can make
sure the previous graphic, whose name is stored in the global variable,
gets set back to black.

I believe that mouseleave is also not called while the button is still
down. And now that I looked it up in the docs, even using mousecontrol
will not work (as used in the suggested script I just sent), because
that remains the original clicked control, even if you have moved over
another object, until you release the mousebutton.

You might have to resort to checking to see if the mouseloc is within
the rect of each graphic you wish to check - ugh.


But I *DO* release the mouse button! I have two overlapping rectangles, A and B:

A is in front of B - both are black, mouse is outside both of them.
(user moves mouse into either A or B and the color changes to blue)
(user moves outside of both and they both go black)
(user moves back and forth between A and B and they change color correctly)
(user does a mouseDown and mouseUp in side the one that is already at the Front (A in this case))
(user moves mouse back and forth between A and B and they change color correctly)
(user does a mouseDown on the rectangle that is behind (B in this case))
(Both rectangles turn blue - B is placed in front of A)
(Move back and forth twice and all is back to normal and A and B change as expected)


So, I tried doing this:

on mouseDown

put name of last graphic into myGraphicName
set the foreGroundColor of graphic myGraphicName to black
set layer of me to top

end mouseDown

And it STILL doesn't work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have also tried sending an "mouseLeave" event to the "last" graphic and this doesn't work either!

Could someone explain to me why this doesn't work???

Thanks a lot
Dave

I don't think so, cos it's mouseLeave that isn't being called.

If both rectangles are black and I move the mouse back and forth
between them, all works as it should. If I mouseDown in either of the
rectangles and then move the mouse to the other recangle, the
Rectangle moved to changes to blue BUT the rectangle that has just
been left DOES NOT get the mouseLeave message. Once this has happened
once, the behaviour goes back to normal again, e.g. the rectangles
change color and you would expect again!

This really seems to be to do with interaction between mouseUp and/or
mouseDown and maybe mouseStillDown. If anyone could shed some light
on this I would be really gratefull I just can't seem to work out why
this doesn't work???!!!

Thanks in advance for any help
Dave


Could it have to do with the fact that mouseenter is not sent if the
mouse button is already down when you enter an object?

Subject: mouseEnter/mouseLeave Problem

Hi,

I have a script on a graphic rectangle object that does the following:

on mouseEnter
set foregroundColor of me to blue
pass mouseEnter
end mouseEnter

on mouseLeave
set foregroundColor of me to black
pass mouseLeave
end mouseLeave

on mouseDown
set the layer of me to top
end mouseDown

on mouseStillDown
-- Move the object via the mouse, sets a new rect for the object
based on mouse movement
end mouseStillDown

This works fine most of the time, however if I have two rectangle
that overlap each other on the display, then when I move the mouse
from one to the other, the mouseLeave handler does not seem to get
>called ***IF* I have moused-down in one of these objects. For
instance:

Both rectangles are set to black
I move the mouse into into Rectangle A which is in front of Rectangle
B. Everything works ok. The rectangles change from black to blue as
expected. However if I do this:

Both rectangles are set to black
Move into Rectangle A - Changes to Blue
Move into Rectangle B - A changes to Black and B changes to Blue (but
B says behind A)
MouseDown in Rectangle B - B moves in in front of A
MouseUp in Rectangle B - (mouseStillDown may have been called)
(Now Rectangle B is in Front and set to Blue, rectangle A is black)
Move into Rectangle A - B does NOT go to black, the mouseLeave
handler is NOT called, A gets changed to Blue, so both are set to
Blue!!!

Any ideas why mouseLeave is not being called? Seems to be after a
MouseDown/Up sequence?

Thanks a lot
Dave
