Hi

I don't know if anyone out there is using Girder with MP3 Jukebox ( www.duerkop-sd.de/ ).

This problem may be specific to that program or maybe not.

I've written a set of command codes to control this program. As I no longer need to use the onscreen buttons (which have four graphical states) I intend to modify one of them to act as an 'IR Received' light. Basically I've changed the skin so an unused button shows a red light in its normal mode, and a green light when the mouse goes over it. The idea being that each multi command will move the cursor position over the button at the start of a command, and move it away at the end.

The problem is that this only works about 80% of the time. The rest of the time the light stays green as if the mouse pointer is still over it, even though it isn't.

I've tried the absolute cursor position, as well as mouse up/down.

Any suggestions?

Sounds like the program misses the event
that the mouse moves out of the button
area.

Isn't there an easier way to see if there
is IR activity ? Like the led on girder or
the icon in the taskbar ?

Hahaha, I sound like an advertisement :-) I'm just having fun with this, and its relatively inexpensive to get started. I think some of you would get a kick out of it too.
