Best Way to capture Winbounds change?

[bbean]

I want to capture when a user clicks the title bar and drags a front panel window to a new location. I only found a "Panel Resize" Event which doesn't fire when the user "moves" the front panel.

Am I missing an easy way to do this?

I'm, guessing you have to place the check in the timeout case, and poll the window bounds.

VI:Frontpanel.WinBounds

If you want to know as soon as the mouse is clicked on the title bar, you have to use the InputDevices.llb\ Mouse VIs.

These will get you the current mouse postion and button states and then compare them to you VI window positon.

Have you checked the redraw event?

Redraw event? I'm using LV8.2 and don't see it.
