I've been experimenting with mouse over events from an example I found on the Gambas wiki. It uses MouseMove and I can get a border to appear around a button, picturebox and label when the mouse moves over it. How would I go about making the border go away when the mouse leaves the control it was over? Here's the code I found on the wiki:


I tried to google some examples and it's AI returned a chunk code that didn't work but it had something about a Mouse_Enter event and Mouse_Leave event….but I couldn't find anything about those. Do those 2 things even exists or does Google's AI need some work?

 Forget all of that.

Just use these events..

Label1_Enter

Label1_Leave

Leave and enter events are Control.class events not Mouse events.

Also after changing things (like border colour) if it does not seem to work it might need to finish with Label1.Refresh

 Thanks Bruce! Exactly what I was looking for. I guess I was just looking in the wrong place. The border color doesn't work even with the label1.Refresh but that's ok because I think I'm going to do something a little different now. Much Appreciated!

Where exactly did you find that "mouse over" example on the wiki?

I just realized that's a different wiki than the gambaswiki.org

Aah I See. I thought you meant the Gambas wiki. Not the Italian user forums wiki.

Never mind. <EMOJI seq="1f60a" tseq="1f60a">😊</EMOJI>

That example is specifically for showing mouse x and y positions as the mouse moves.

It's terrible for any other purpose  8-)

That's why I asked.

Ah, ok, I've learned something new today. Thanks again Bruce!
