BackGrndMouseMove Method (WINDOW)

PLBCMP GUI Only

The BackGrndMouseMove method reports and changes the runtime operation that allows or prevents MOUSEMOVE events for WINDOW objects that is not the current active window. The method uses the following format:

Where:

label

Optional. A Program Execution Label.

object

Required. A WINDOW object that is closed.

return

Optional. A Numeric Variable that indicates the current MOUSEMOVE background setting.

mode

Optional. A Numeric Variable or decimal number that enables or disables the MOUSEMOVE when the WINDOW is in the background.

Flags Affected: OVER, ZERO

Note the following:

1. If the {return} value is zero (0), the MOUSEMOVE event processing is disabled for the WINDOW object when it is not the active window. If the {return} value is non-zero, the MOUSEMOVE event processing is enabled.

2. If the {mode} value is zero, the background MOUSEMOVE event processing is disabled. If the {mode} value is non-zero value, the background MOUSEMOVE event processing is enabled.

3. If the optional {mode} value is not specified, the {return} value simply indicates the current setting.

4. If the {return} value is zero, the ZERO flag is set.

5. If the {return} Numeric Variable is too small and the returned value is truncated, the OVER flag is set.

6. For improved performance in the Application Server environment, do not specify the optional return value unless needed.

7. This method is not available when using the PL/B Web Server.
