onclick / ondrag events
I am using the onclick and ondrag event handlers in my jsui, and found out
that:
- the onclick event is called on both the down and up state of the button,
so twice on every click.
- the ondrag event is called on every click, even though there is absolutely
no dragging.
Now I need to manually filter out duplicate clicks, because of the
processing that gets called by these events. It seems like a real waste. Is
this really the way it's supposed to work?

I would suggest you look at the button flag to determine if it is a
mouse down or a mouse up.

I would suggest you look at the mouse position if you only want to
handle actual movement.

Aha, I didn't realize the button flag was there. I don't think it is
mentioned anywhere in the docs, except in the function arguments. Thanks. I
think in my case can use ondrag for all event handling, if it also include
clicks.
best,

Definitely recommend checking out the example JSUI files which show
this usage.
