drag and drop problem...

[Frank Leahy]

Hi all,

I have a list field containing album titles, which the user can reorder 
using drag and drop -- click on a title and a field appears (on top of 
the list field) that follows the cursor.  When you release the mouse 
the field disappears and I then reorder the albums. All of that works 
great. (Note, I don't use the drag and drop manager, I simply set the 
tracking field visible, move it around under the cursor, and then set 
it invisible again after the mouse is up).

What DOESN'T work is the next mouse click.  After doing the 
set-visible/drag/set-invisible sequence, the next time you click 
anywhere in the window, the mouse click goes to the card, not to the 
item under the mouse click, regardless whether the item is a button or 
a field.  I've also noticed that when moving the cursor over an 
editable text field the cursor doesn't switch to an i-beam until after 
the next mouse click.

Something's setting the target to the card and I can't figure out what 
it is.  Any suggestions on what may be going on?

Thanks in advance,
