Every time I see something like this, I think of my sister-in-law
who sells blue-green algae. "If you need to lose weight, blue-green
algae will help you do that. If you need to gain weight, blue-green
algae can also help with that!"

Wow. Amazing, is all I can say! :-)

Cheers,

David

For anyone else who might have trouble with this, I received an email
from someone who had a similar problem. Their problem differs from me
in that I need to actively click on a tlb widget hierarchy where they
need to actively avoid one. Here is their solution.


I've seen this if I hit a breakpoint in an event loop
during which a call to WIDGET_CONTROL, /HOURGLASS is
in effect. I've found that I need to switch focus to
another application on the desktop, then switch back
to the IDE without passing the cursor over any IDL
TLB widget hierarchies to get out of the state. If
I pass the cursor over an IDL widget, the hourglass
state grabs it again.
