In Flash, there seem to be two sets of mouse click events: onMouseUp, onMouseDown onPress, onRelease Is there any actual difference between these events? I can't tell from the documentation, and I haven't noticed anything in actual usage, but it seems odd to have two different sets of names for the same basic events. Am I missing s...

I'm interested in making a multi-user application and I thought it would be great if I could have 2 or more users holding wireless mice each interacting with the app individually with a separate mouse arrow. Is this something I should try to farm out to some other appli...
In almost any Windows application, I notice that holding the mouse button down in a non-client area causes the painting to stop. Why is this required? For example, I have a Managed Direct 3D application which displays a spinning cube. If I place the pointer over the title bar and hold the mouse button down, the cube ceases to spin even ...
A friend of mine asked me to implement a blue and a red pointer to represent the inputs of two separate mice to expedite a mixing desk scenario for real time audio mixing. I'd love to, but as much as I think it is a great idea, I don't have a clue as to where to start looking for a possible solution. Where should I start researching a ...
One of our newer products is a walk-on video system, in which a character appears in an absolutely positioned DIV and gives a little presentation. We're using Flash 9, AS3.

I'm using a VB6 PictureBox on my User Control. I set the PictureBox's picture, I set the BorderStyle to 0, and I set the BackColor to the User Control's BackColor. The idea is that I want a "floating" icon. However, I want that icon to appear clickable when the mouse hovers over it. Two questions: Which events do I use? MouseMov...

In an Access (2002 / 2003) data-bound form, a turn of the mousewheel moves to the next/previous record, even if the cursor is inside a multiline text field or a listbox. This is a major annoyance to users and cannot be turned off easily. I recently discovered a DLL called MouseHook (http://www.lebans.com/mousewheelonoff.htm) which can e...

Hey, I'm wondering, is it possible to somehow map a key-press event to act like a middle-key click of a mouse in Xwindows? They are diffrent devices, I know, but if there was a way to trigger a middle-button click event from a C program, it should be easy to bind a key to it using existing xwindows mechanisms. ...
