Dear R-Devel list members I'm facing as problem already known and linked to the use of getGraphicsEvent(prompt = "Waiting for input", ???????????????? onMouseDown = NULL, onMouseMove = NULL, ???????????????? onMouseUp = NULL, onKeybd = NULL, ???????????????? onIdle = NULL, ???????????????? consolePrompt = prompt) setGraphicsEventHandlers(which = dev.cur(), ...) getGraphicsEventEnv(which = dev.cur()) setGraphicsEventEnv(which = dev.cur(), env) The problem rises when trying to get interrupts generated by pressing mouse buttons and, at the same time, interrupts coming from widgets. The idea is to locate points under a spectrum and draw a baseline. ?In my code the logical sequence of operations is: 1) widgets are created to select the datafile, the spectrum to plot, and the baseline to use; 2) The selection of the datafile and spectrum activate widget-handlers and the spectrum is drawn in an X-Y plot; 3) then /setGraphicsEventHandlers(which = dev.cur(), ...)/ /getGraphicsEventEnv()// /are used to set the graphic handler and check if the /EventEnv$which/ corresponds to the active device and get events when mouse buttons are pressed. Observe that these instructions are located after widgets at the end of the code (i.e. all widget with handlers are defined). In Windows operating systems both widget-handlers and graphic-Event-handlers are active. This allows defining the baseline edges under the spectrum (graphic-Event-handlers), select the baseline (widget handlers) and plot the baseline under the spectrum (widget handlers). Unfortunately in linux (I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS) the graphic-Event-handler masks the widget handlers. This blocks the mouse clicks on widgets preventing any selection of the baseline and of other options. The locator function uses a graphic handler letting widget-handlers active in both windows and linux operating systems. Infortunately locator() only responds to the Left_mouse_button while I need both the left and right buttons. The code C_locator() used to sense the mouse button pressing is not accessible I then cannot modify it to satisfy my needs. Could you suggest any solution? Is it possible to have the C_locator code to modify it? Thanking you in advance for the attention best regards G.
