Hi Nigel,

With MouseInteractLayers := MouseInteractLayers + [mlCreateShapeLayers]

Trying to ImageEnView1.LayersDeselectAll when user clicks on ImageEnView1 where there is no layer (ImageEnVect1.FindLayerAt(X, Y) = -1)

The problem is after successful ImageEnView1.LayersDeselectAll one of the shape layers is immediately selected.

Hi

If you put that code in MouseDown then the Layer mouse events will still occur.

Put the code in MouseUp and it will work.

My code for the MouseUp is:


procedure TForm.ImageEnView1MouseUp(Sender: TObject; Button: TMouseButton;
Shift: TShiftState; X, Y: Integer);
//
if (Button = mbLeft) and (SaveX = X) and (SaveY = Y) and (ImageEnView1.FindLayerAt(X, Y) = -1) then
begin
ImageEnView1.LayersDeselectAll;
end;
end;

Clicking on an area without any layers:
On MouseUp the code successfully deselects all layers about 1/2 the time. The other 1/2 a shape is still under the mouse (FindLayerAt <> -1);

Sorry, I think I have misunderstood. What is it you are trying to achieve?

While in add ShapeLayers mode given by:

ImageEnView1.MouseInteractLayers :=
ImageEnView1.MouseInteractLayers + [mlCreateShapeLayers]

I want the users to be able to deselect all ShapeLayers by clicking on an unpopulated area of ImageEnView1.

The way it works now is clicking on an unpopulated area leads to the same or another ShapeLayer being selected.

My code works half the time because a new ShapeLayer appears automatically when an unpopulated area gets clicked. FindLayerAt(X, Y) can wrongly return populated because this ShapeLayer may be present for a while.

Actually, ImageEn should be deselecting the layer when clicking an unpopulated area anyway. I will fix that for v9.2.6 (late next week). You can email me for the source if you like.
