Hi John, > If you can you explain what you are trying to do I might be able to help.
Sure; I'm trying to detect idle time in the application when a user doesn't do any activity for X seconds. Any activity is defined as EVT_MOTION and EVT_KEY_DOWN events, but I'll settle for EVT_KEY_DOWN if it's difficult to track both. I don't want to keep adding my handlers to all the components I have and am looking for as few places to modify as possible. Paul.
