FWIW - If you run xev with XWin in -rootless or -multiwindow mode, when you leave the X client window and enter Windows territory, sometimes you get a LeaveNotify event, but sometimes you don't. It seems to depend on how fast the mouse is moving when you cross the border. I see in

Jean-Claude, Yes, I know what you are talking about. The short answer is that it can be done. In fact, it is already done in MultiWindow mode. It was easy to do in MultiWindow mode because our application is the window manager so sending ourself a message to say remove the focus from the

Thomas, I see. I have to say first: I don't know X that well, but I wonder if the message notification you're talking about would work. The WM_MOUSELEAVE message might not be the one to handle this. The message to notify a window when it has lost/gained focus is

Quite true, Ago. I *did* try compiling XWin a while ago, but there was a problem with CVS and some other thing and I gave up. I promise to try again! I use Cygwin-XFree all the time, and I think it is absolutely great! Thanks. On Wed, 2003-09-24 at 15:09, Alexander Gottwald wrote: On Wed, 24
