mouseWithin and mouseLeave problem

[Kaveh Bazargan]

Hi Bob

Guess what. MouseRelease works if you click either side of the
thumbposition, but not if you click the thumb itself. Looking for another
handler for that.

Could there be a more elegant solution? Something like a property  or
behavior that resets a scrollbar to its normal size if it is not a focus?
