Bug #176
Updated by R. Campbell over 8 years ago
When selecting text or in general whenever a mouse tracking loop takes longer than 5 seconds,
Windows thinks that the application is not responding and turns the application window into
a 'ghost' window. This happens in particular with Windows 10 but there are also cases in
XP and Vista where ghosting occurs.
It is proposed to change this behavior by consuming all Windows messages while mouse tracking.
Only mouse messages will be processed, though.
