help with mouse events/ contact info by pariah123 on 05-16-2007 at 11:24 PM

2 questions ::

1) Plus doesnt support mousevents??? (Like onMouseover and such...)
2) Is there a way to access a contacts Date of Birth (assuming his user is on the Microsoft network) ?

1) JScript isn't JavaScript...

Plus! support many events which include clicking on controls etc. For other stuff you need to refer to subclassing and Windows APIs directly. Look up PlusWnd::RegisterMessageNotification and OnWindowidEvent_* in the scripting documentation.

2) No

nice, but I wouldn't use that.

You don't need (crappy) polling and checking every 100ms for the mouse position and creating timers for this, simply use PlusWnd::RegisterMessageNotification and listen to Windows Messages to create real events.

PlusWnd::RegisterMessageNotification would be for one window (right?), not the whole system.

If you need mouseover events it is for controls on your own created windows, in 99,999999% of all cases...
