Subject: spurious mouse clicks
Reply-To: turner@lanl.gov

Here's something else I found in my archives from very early in the
19.15 beta cycle (6/30/96).

The original report was using:

19.14, Solaris 2.5, CDE 1.0.1
precompiled binaries for Solaris 2.4 w/SPARCworks

But it's still in:

19.15b90, Solaris 2.5.1, CDE 1.0.2, compiled using SunPro C 4.0

Here's how to reproduce:

o Start VM, that opens a new frame.

o Place the frame along the left side of the screen.

o Place the icon along the left side of the screen, so that if you
  double-click to open it, the frame opens up with the mouse pointer 
  over one of the VM buttons (any of them: Reply, Compose, Print,
  Visit, Quit, etc.).

o Iconize the VM frame, then double-click it to open it.  The button
  under the mouse pointer will think it has been pressed, and whatever
  action is appropriate will occur.

It's probably important that I use focus-follows-mouse.

Can others reproduce this?

Any ideas what might be happening?  It's not a real problem for me
since things have to be just right for it to happen, but I'm thinking
this should probably be fixed, as it may be a symptom of something
that might affect things other than VM.
