RE: [GD-Windows] Out of window mouse up messages

[Rob H. <ro...@ga...>]

I can think of 2 ways to get around this problem.
1:  Go back to using SetCapture().  When the window loses the mouse
capture( the user clicked a window owned by another thread ) you will
get a WM_CAPTURECHANGED message.  Buttons do this type of thing so they
can make sure the BUTTONUP message comes while the mouse is actually on
the button.
2:  Try using TrackMouseEvent().  This will enable the specified window
to receive WM_MOUSELEAVE and WM_NCMOUSELEAVE messages.

Hmmmm, one minor problem, not sure if it's a real problem, is that I
won't actually "see" the mouse up until the cursor comes back into the
window since I won't be getting the WM_MOUSEMOVE while it's outside the
window.
