Is there a way to gauge whether a user is currently resizing a patcher window and holding the left mouse button down? I'd like to stop certain processes until the user has lifted the button, but I can't figure out how to do it. Obviously, I have already tried the usual suspects (mousefilter and mousestate), but they don't work in areas that aren't owned by the patcher window.

The hi object still reports mouse activity when resizing, so it seems.

if i understand correctly, i use javascript to tell me about window resizing activity. not sure about the title bar though.

Thanks for your answers: the problem with hi is that the proper settings have to be made beforehand: creating a device menu, choosing the right device, start polling. I'd like a user to not be confronted with this.
