Live reporting of window moving?

[ozzie]

If I monitor the event #PB_Event_MoveWindow then this fires only when the window move has finished, ie when the user releases the mouse button. Is it possible to get live or continuous notifications as the window is moved? Can I do this by checking something in a window callback?

- Changed: #PB_Event_SizeWindow and #PB_Event_MoveWindow are no more realtime on Windows, use BindEvent() to get real time update. It should fixes ugly flickering when realtime resizing on Windows.

Or use SetWindowCallBack().

Code: Select all

Procedure MoveWndEvent()
  WinID = EventWindow()
  
  Debug "xPos: "+ WindowX(WinID)
  Debug "yPos: "+ WindowY(WinID)
EndProcedure

OpenWindow(1,200,200,200,200,"Test",#PB_Window_ScreenCentered|#PB_Window_SizeGadget|#PB_Window_SystemMenu)
WindowBounds(1,200,200,200,200)

BindEvent(#PB_Event_MoveWindow ,@MoveWndEvent(), 1)

Repeat
  Event = WaitWindowEvent(50)
  Event_Gadget = EventGadget()
Until Event = #PB_Event_CloseWindow

Many thanks. That's perfect. I'll have to learn a bit more about BindEvent()!
