"This can be done now using GetCursorMouseButtons(), 
GetCursorXPosition() and GetCursorYPosition() . HOWEVER there is no 
function that returns the ChartID for the chartpane over which the 
mouse is clicked"

Hi Herman,

All of that chartID stuff would not be necessary if you tied the 
mouse button clicks to well-known event routines (like that ones I 
mentioned as an example) which get called specifically from the AFL 
code behind a chart pane.

You want this type of facility event-driven, not polled.  Polling 
puts more work on the user's side and brings up other unpleasant side-
effects like what you just described.  

Which would you rather do?  

1) Code a rats nest of polling inline with your other AFL code

-or-

2) Have a well-known function called on a mouse click with all of the 
information you need provided as the function parameters directed to 
the script already bound to a particular chart pane?

Anyone who chooses #1 last seriously programmed a computer more than 
20 years ago.

"That's available now - check the list of functions, duude."

No it's not...duude [sic]
