[Qt-interest] Filtering Mouse events in QT

[Jeroen De Wachter]

Hi Zaid,

I think a good place to start looking is the Mouse Tracking in QWidget 
(which will always trigger mouseMoveEvents on your widget, no matter if 
a mouse button was pressed on it or not) and the Drag&Drop functionality 
embedded in Qt: http://qt.nokia.com/doc/4.6/dnd.html

I don't think filtering the events is the best approach here, but other 
may prove me wrong.

Kind regards,

Jroen
