The "hack" mentioned by Brahmanatha is a technique to make clickable/draggable transparent images, it doesn't have to do with buttons at all: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Grabbing-Image-with-Transpar ent-Mask-td4699808.html#a4699809
I agree with Jacque's findings. AFAIK, buttons have always responded across their entire rect. Maybe there's some odd rendering bug occurring, but perhaps it would be good to double-check what types of objects are being used there.
