Code for holding down right mouse button

Hello all,

I just have a quick question: how do you check in your window function if the right mouse button is being held down? The only solution I can come up with is as follows:

Code:

---

case WM_MOUSEMOVE:
if(wParam &MK_RBUTTON)
//do what you have to
break;

---

The only problem with this is that it only responds when the mouse moves (as it should). Is there any other way to check if the right mouse button being pressed (perhaps in a WM_TIMER message)? Many thanks in advance.

Best,

Bill

idk if this helps, but you can always have a static bool variable that is set to true when the right button is down and set to false when its let up in the WM_RBUTTONDOWN and WM_RBUTTONUP messsages.

Thank you oh so dearly. It really helped.
