#1731 SCN_DWELLSTART never fired

[britemma]

Hello,
I had a DWELLSTART notification action in my program for a while, and now, the event is never fired. Is there a problem with the notification. I have set the SCI_SETMOUSEDWELLTIME to 500ms but it never seem to go into the notification.
Does somebody have this problem ?
Thanks

There were significant changes with timers in 3.5.0 to decrease power use so you could examine the changes made then.

Dwell works for me in SciTE 3.5.6 on Windows, Linux and OS X with

function OnDwellStart(pos, word)
    if pos == 0 and word == '' then
        editor:CallTipCancel()
    else
        editor:CallTipShow(pos, pos .. " " .. word)
    end
end

function OnSwitchFile()
    scite.SendEditor(SCI_SETMOUSEDWELLTIME, 1000)
end

Hi,
thanks for your answer Neil. With your example I got it to work it was effectively the timer changes.
Thanks again :)
