What is the best way to find out which control the mouse is over when
the mouse button is depressed? Functions such as target() within a
mouseMove handler and mouseControl() placed in the group script always
return the control the user clicked on rather than the control the
mouse is currently over.
I have a scenario where I have a series of buttons grouped together.
If a user clicks on one of the buttons and moves over another button
with the mouse button still depressed then I want to shift focus to
that button. I haven't fond an efficient way of shifting focus since
it is difficult to find out when the user moves over different controls
with the mouse button down.
