Thanks for the previous suggestion to use the "grab" command when moving
an object. I can move an object and check an overlap with another object
if I know which object I am interested in.

What I want to do now is move an object (like a button) onto any one of
a number of objects. Before I let go of the object I'm moving, have the
other object hilite to give feedback that it is over something useful. I
can get the target object to hilite using mouseEnter or mouseWithin if I
simply move the mouse over it but those messages don't get to the target
if I am dragging the button. There will be too many target objects for
me to check overlap with all of them.

I've tried putting pass mouseEnter, etc but it doesn't seem to make any
difference. This also doesn't work if I use the move command instead of
grab.

Version 1.1 will have drag and drop. Will I need to wait for it or is
there a way to do it now?

Thanks,
Bill Vlahos
