MouseOver causes button press job to stop when leave ???

I'm only using the mouseover to show a HAND and it goes to a mouse enter and a mouse leave label(s).

BUT, When I move the mouse away or off the button(mouse leave) after clicking it, it causes the click event (task) to stop immediately, its like when it goes to the mouse leave label it forgets to do what the button was susposed to do.

Anyone know whats wrong.. Rolling Eyes

By the way, this is not a BitBtn, its a regular button, allthough I have 2 other BitBtns on the same prog.. and even when I have mouseover disabled on the button of question, its same problem if I roll the mouse over another regular but with mouseover HAND...

Does mouseover require a evloop event processing traffic cop ? (because I dont have any extra event lines in my evloop)

its VDS5 I'm talking about.. example below:

DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,v111,97,15,55,27,v1.11,,MOUSEOVER

:Evloop
wait event
goto @event()

:v111ENTER
dialog cursor,HAND
goto evloop

:v111LEAVE
dialog cursor,
goto evloop

seems it should be simple problem of just events etc..

any idea please? Very Happy

Sorry,
My fault, it turned out that it was a freak accident of a faulty IF inside my REPEAT-UNTIL with another lame IF statement.
Thanks anyways...

VSD5 can change cursor on buttons without a mouseover style

wow - thanks for that Very Happy

I just searched the VDS5 dos again for HAND MOUSEOVER and other keywords, even looked in some styles, can't find the HAND style anywhere, but it does work.

Heres all I could ever find in the VDS5 Docs:

If MOUSEOVER is specified, a <name>ENTER event is generated when the mouse enters the boundary of the dialog element, and a <name>LEAVE event is generated when the mouse leaves the boundary.

Thanks again, that makes its real nice now Cool

You can use any window cursor name on them Smile

HAND, HELP, UP, CROSS, NODROP, VSPLIT, NESW, IBEAM,
WAIT, WE, SIZE, MULTIDRAG, DRAG, NWSE, SQLW, NO,
HSPLIT, NS, NONE,DEFAULT

Haven't tried custom ones but maybe you can use them as well
