Description

It seems that ctrls don't recive mouse event when pointer leaves the window area. This bug can be observed while using menubars when Standard theme is enable. I think we should handle mouse events when pointer leaves window area.

(CtrlCore/GtkEvent.cpp - line 136):

    case GDK_LEAVE_NOTIFY:
        EventMouseValid = false;
    case GDK_MOTION_NOTIFY: {
        GdkEventMotion *e = (GdkEventMotion *)event;
        DoMouseEvent(e->state, Point((int)e->x_root, (int)e->y_root));
        break;
    }

instead of:

    case GDK_LEAVE_NOTIFY:
        EventMouseValid = false;
        return false; // <- MouseLeave() never be executed!
    case GDK_MOTION_NOTIFY: {
        GdkEventMotion *e = (GdkEventMotion *)event;
        DoMouseEvent(e->state, Point((int)e->x_root, (int)e->y_root));
        break;
    }

Well, mouse-leave is normally checked using periodic timer (this is to support platforms lacking proper inputs).

However, a week or two back I was fixing/refactoring related issue there (e.g. EventMouseValid no longer exists). Can you please check if it works now (without applying this patch)?

No it dosen't.

I think that we should remove "return false" instruction. Finally, the code should look like this:

    case GDK_LEAVE_NOTIFY:
    case GDK_MOTION_NOTIFY: {
        GdkEventMotion *e = (GdkEventMotion *)event;
        DoMouseEvent(e->state, Point((int)e->x_root, (int)e->y_root));
        break;
    }
