OnMouseDown event

(1/18) > >>

RW1962:
RichMemo has an event for OnMouseDown ...

procedure TCmdForm.MemoMouseDown(Sender: TObject; Button: TMouseButton; Shift: TShiftState; X, Y: Integer);

But it doesn't allow ... var Handled: Boolean;

It seems like it should.

Why you think that it seems to be missing?
It would be great if you add examples where it be needed, without not working etc...

RW1962:
The mouse triggers a Windows event, just like the keyboard will. If it had the HANDLED function then the Windows System would be told to ignore the mouse message. Moreover, that is how OnMouseWheel operates. It keeps from having crossed wires with the Windows System.

KodeZwerg:
Again, please add an example where HANDLED for a mouse-event is badly needed.
Just imagine it exists, so I do understand for what you are needing such.
I do usual "exit" that event whenever I want so there is no need for such.

RW1962:
With this example mbExtra1 & mbExtra2 do not post the showmessage notice. This means that it does not process the function. However, mbRight does process ... my pop-up appears.

Nevertheless, the mouse button does activate the Windows System ... it does the PageUp & PageDown. This makes me think that Windows is overriding and suppressing my OnMouseDown operation.

It has also been sporadic. Sometimes the showmessage will post, and sometimes it won't do a PageUp or PageDown at all ... and no message.
