I have a bit of a problem reproducing this. First of all I'm wondering
why the browser reacts to middle and right clicks at all, I would only
expect it to react to left clicks (if it's e.g. a FL_SELECT_BROWSER).
Then there's nothing in the library I'm aware of at the moment that
would distinguish between "slow" and "fast" clicks - and a (select)
browser (that's what I assume you have there because of the line you
click on changes its color) should react immediately to pressing the
left mouse button. I guess there's not enough information here for me
to come up with a fix for something I currently don't understand at
all.
Would it be possible that you send me your programs sources so that
I get a better picture of what you're doing there (preferably, of
course, a cut-down version that still shows the symptoms, but the
whole thing will also do).

That's also something I can't reproduce - if I click into a
FL_CHOICE object the menu pops up immediately for me...

I very much would like to increase that to 99.99% or better (100% is
probably not going to be something we'll achieve in our life times;-)

At the moment I'm at a loss. Having the source code might definitely
help to get a bit further with this or at least to ascertain if this
is an XForms issue or something else...
Best regards, Jens
