Re: Gadgets and events - followup question

If you look at your main event loop, it should look something like: static void EventLoop(void) {  EventType event;  Word   error;    do   {   // Get the next available event.   EvtGetEvent(&event, evtWaitForever);     // Give the system a chance to handle the event.   if (! SysHandleEvent(&event))    // P2. Give the menu bar a chance to update and handle the event.    if (! MenuHandleEvent(0, &event, &error))     // P3. Give the application a chance to handle the event.     if (! ApplicationHandleEvent(&event))      // P3. Let the form object provide default handling of the event.      FrmDispatchEvent(&event);   }  while (event.eType != appStopEvent); } It's easy to understand why isn't the form receiving low-level events. They are being absorved by SysHandleEvent, which generates other, high-level, events. You can create your own event types. Just add another event handling routine to the main event loop.   -- Sergio Carvalho --------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you
