It doesn't handle the regions. Basically, I have an image of an iPod, I want to make get the mouse up/down info on each of the buttons on the iPod in the picture. MouseState just gives me whether the button on the mouse is up or down.

do you mean something like iem_event from iemgui? it just gives you and invisible object that you can interact with.

Hum, thanks IOhannes. This actually did a couple of things for me...

1. It makes me rethink the idea of externals having more than one

outlet. It makes it a bit clearer what the code does when you have a single outlet, and then using a [route] to handle those messages... That actually goes a long way in helping to remember what it was you were trying to do, instead of hiding those things in multiple outlets. it is almost like self-documenting code...

2. It appears that I need to start to learn to use 'declare'. This was

the first time that I have ever got it to work. It seems like it has matured quite a bit...

Thanks,

Mike
