Hi Ken,

Yep it works and even makes the button react like the "normal" buttons 
do.
Meaning normal buttons change to "up"  and "down" states when the mouse 
leaves
or reenters the rect of the button when the mouse button is kept down.
The other code does not. But may be this is intentional and it is all 
up to the taste of
the developer.
Thanks for mentioning though.

Greetings,
WA
