Pencil doesn't trigger mousedown?

[MisterX]

In the quest for a cool shift-horizontal/vertical dragging functionality of
the pencil as previously requested and often missed, i added the bit of
coded needed to ResizeN2O. It works for draging objects in a primitive way
but the pencil doesn't trigger the mousedown event!!! 
 
Any ideas anyone? The revdocs didn't help... 
 
Altough, when you drag a line with the line tool and hold the shift key, you
do get a 15 degree limiter/midar line... And I think someone did suggest
that at one point, im just surprised the mousedown doesn't work in pencil
tool mode though...

bugzilla suggestions?

cheers
