[paragui-users] Buttons capture all events when pressed...

[Steve McCrea]

Hi,

 

We're developing a timed game, but if I hold down one of the buttons the game pauses, because the button's eventMouseButtonDown() calls SetCapture(), so that all events are sent to this button only.

 

I commented out this part of PG_MessageObject::ProcessEvent() so that messages would continue to go to all objects:

 

    if ((captureObject != NULL) && (captureObject != this)) {

        return false;

    }

 

and it seems to do what I want (not pause the game), but can anyone advise me?

Is this a good idea?

Is there a better way?

 

Thanks,
Steve
