window ->grab_pointer: bool

If @on is specified, all subsequent events will be reported as if they happened on this window. @off should be used to resume normal event-processing.

The normal XPCE event-processing ensures the window in which a mouse-down event occurrs grabs the pointer until the mouse-button is released (see also class gesture).

Most modern window environments do not allow a global grab on the pointer. Any event happening on any xpce window of the same process is redirected to this window.
