I have added a MouseMotionListener in my JFrame to control all mouse motion messages that arrived from all objects in my jframe, but when I move my mouse over a JLayeredPane no message is produced. Please help me to add a central MouseMotionListener in my JFrame to control all messages from all objects in it.
great thanks.
You would want to use a AWTEventListener to listen for all AWT messages.
Following code shows how to listen for mouse and key events:
long eventMask = AWTEvent.MOUSE_MOTION_EVENT_MASK
+ AWTEvent.MOUSE_EVENT_MASK
+ AWTEvent.KEY_EVENT_MASK;
Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().addAWTEventListener( new AWTEventListener()
{
public void eventDispatched(AWTEvent e)
{
System.out.println(e.getID());
}
}, eventMask);
See Global Event Listeners for more information.
