I dealt with a similar problem recently (though not so recently that I remember the details), and going with NSTrackingArea was the solution. I discovered that the setAcceptsMouseMovedEvents: technique only works with the key window or with views that are first responder, or something like that. I'm pretty sure something in the list archives got me on the right track, possibly this: <http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/cocoa/31206-capture-mousemoved-under-nsview.html#31201>. --Andy _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
