what messages are fired when paint tools are used?

[Bernard Devlin]

In creating a simple test stack, I found in the IDE that mouseMove is at
least sent to image controls and to the card.  I suppose there is a logic
to only those objects receiving messages when the tool is set e.g. to
"brush".  Others such as mouseEnter are not sent at all when the tool is
"brush".

I might be able to work with mouseMove alone.
