I think Rob will be charging me extra for all the help soon

Gadget Under Mouse() seems to retain the last value when there is no longer a gadget under the mouse.

For example, if I waft my mouse over gadget 1, it correctly tells me so. But when I move away, it still reports gadget 1 as being under the mouse.

This function works perfectly as you move from gadget to gadget, it's just when there are no gadgets in the way that it screws me.

Is this right? I can code around it, but I'd rather know if there is a quick way to fix it.

Under certain circumstances it works OK. Those circumstances seem to be that the DB app is running at exactly the same resolution that Windows is running at.

Gadget Under Mouse isn't very smart in v1. It waits for a mouse move message to be sent to a gadget and then stores that index in a variable, which GADGET UNDER MOUSE() retrieves.

In Blue2 gadgetUnderMouse() doesn't suffer from these problems as it recalculates which gadget is under the mouse each time you call it.
