Mouse button state

In OnMouseLeave method which is invoked when the WM_MOUSELEAVE message arrives I would like to determine the mouse button states too. Any idea how to do this? Do we have something like GetAsyncKeyState method which is for keyboard state? Thanks, Abyss

I'm not sure why do you think this is in wrong forum. :confused: It is a windows message (WINAPI) and used in C++ code. My application uses MFC to route this message. Which forum do you recommend for this question?

WM_MOUSELEAVEon MSDN andOnMouseLeaveis typically a method of.NET Frameworkcontrols. :)If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler. -- Alfonso the Wise, 13th Century King of Castile.

Absolutely - take a look at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms645615.aspx[^]
OK, you're right, my bad :-O . Anyway have a look to
GetAsyncKeyStatedocumentation itself http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms646293(VS.85).aspx[^] the following sentence looks promising: Remarks The GetAsyncKeyState function works with mouse buttons.

Wow :omg: I was blind !!! I did not expect that GetAsyncKeyState can handle mouse buttons as well. I just tried and it really works and solved my problem. Many thanks. Abyss

I didn't expect too. I accidentally saw that remark: sometimes luck helps... :laugh: :)
