How to handle 'movestack' ??

[Chipp Walters]

Dar,

Thanks for your thoughts, and sorry for the mutiple posts...a mailserver
problem...
What I'm trying to accomplish is the illusion of creating a 'transparent'
windwow, where after moved, moves offscreen, grabs what's underneath (import
snapshot) put's it on the stack and moves in back onscreen --- all quickly!
Works great in Linux, but doesn't work at all on PC. I surprised that MC/RR
doesn't have a "on moveStackDone" type of event.

This is probably not the way an expert would do it, but here is an idea.

Run the handler when movestack stops firing.

Send a delayed message every time movestack fires.  Either get rid
of old ones or have some sort of check in the message handler.
When the message handler runs and movestack has not fired in some
period, it calls your custom handler.

Another thought...  Does your custom handler really care?
