onMouseDownGlobal() {}

[DustyPorViva]

The equivalent of onMouseDown(), but works globally(just like leftmousebuttonglobal and the others), in terms of GUI's capturing mouse clicks. For example, if I have a GUIcontrol in use for a HUD, but typically can not be interacted with by the mouse, it will break onMouseDown if the player clicks on the screen over top of that. Sometimes this can be detrimental to mouse controls.

I don't quite understand, but wouldn't this fix it?

  GraalControl.makeFirstResponder(true);

Dunno... it's not enabled by default regardless. Not to mention onMouseDown() is not a GUI function, thus I don't think it'd be affected. Also(never using makefirstresponder myself), wouldn't that effect things negatively if GraalControl is stealing mouse click focus from GUI's that DO need it?

Uh, yes it is. http://wiki.graal.net/index.php/GuiControl

You can also set modal to false in the GUI's profile.

I'm talking about the default onMouseDown(), not the inherited one for GUI's.

I'm 99% certain onMouseDown() is just short name for the GraalControl.onMouseDown() event.

OIC, my mistake.

Well we have the global booleans for checking if a mouse button down, so we should have the events too.

It returns completely different parameters(first is "left", "double", "middle", or "right". Second is key modifier, for like holding ctrl and such... I think.). While GUI.onMouseDown() returns about 4 params, including the position of the click in the gui.

Indeed, you'll find the mousedown event in the old commands.rtf.
