Results Edit

Clicking the Left, Right and Middle buttons in turn will produce:

 OnMouseDown: LeftButton

 OnMouseUp: LeftButton
 OnClick: LeftButton

 OnMouseDown: RightButton
 OnClick: RightButton

 OnMouseUp: RightButton

 OnMouseDown: MiddleButton

 OnMouseUp: MiddleButton

DetailsEdit

• Buttons default to having "LeftButtonUp" registered for clicks.
• Registering for () means <OnClick> will never trigger.
• Registering for invalid event names will not cause errors; invalid names are silently ignored.
• The <OnMouseDown> and <OnMouseUp> handlers will always receieve all mouse up/down events.
• ONLY BUTTONS (and widgets that inherit from Button) HAVE OnClick HANDLERS! If you want to trap mouse button events for other objects, use the OnMouseDown and OnMouseUp events.
