Events only hit one view too. The innermost/frontmost view that the
mouse is over that is clickable gets the click. The interaction with
text selection sounds like a bug to me, but I am not a textpert. It
may be a limitation of the Flash player.

View objects that are clickable receive mouse events and view
objects that are not clickable do not receive mouse events.
Adding an mouse event handler to an object by setting a mouse event
handler attribute or by adding a method specifically designated to
handle the event sets the clickable attribute of the object to
true.So...
<view onmousedown='Debug.write("received mousedown")'></view>
and
<view>
Debug.write("received mousedown");
</view>
both have the side effect of setting the clickable attribute of the
view to true.
This is appears to be the case for the following
handlers:onmousedown, onmouseup, onmouseover,onmouseout, and onclick.
A views clickable attribute affects how mouse events are propagated
to the underlying flash movie clip. One effect this has is that
text selection for clickable inputtext fields does not work
correctly. This seems to be a bug, but I am not sure. I am still
trying to figure out exactly what is going on in the code for
LzView.prototype.setClickable.
Does anyone know if the above behavior is a bug or is the intended
behavior. I think it should either be documented or changed so I
guess I want to either file a bug against the docs or against LFC.
Also for my problem I do have a workaround.involving LzGlobalMouse
which reports mouse up and down even when the mouse is over a non-
clickable field.
Thanks,
Daniel.
