howdy,
thank you so much for the help! it worked. i subclassed NavMouseMode,
changed the modeID to "Gestures", and overrode mousePressed.
everything seems to be working! here's the code in mousePressed.
thanks again!
maria
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent evt)
{
int mask = InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK - 1;
int mods = evt.getModifiers() & mask;
if (mods == 0)
{
evt.getComponent().requestFocus();
getMouseSupport().fireMapMousePressed(evt);
}
else
{
super.mousePressed(evt);
}
}
