vi runs while mouse down

[PaulG.]

I need a vi to run while the right mouse click button is down, but as soon as the operator releases the mouse button, the vi closes. And it needs to run under the event structure.

Does it matter where the mouse is down?

Yes. When the mouse is over a control. I got that part worked out, though. The event structure isn't quite as robust as I like. It gives me the "-2" for the right-click, but it doesn't reset back to zero when the mouse button is relased.

'-2' of what? My RMB returns 2 for the mouse button.
And you should wait on a mouse up event after the mouse down, see here.

Sorry, mouse button is "2".
