Dear <your name here>!
We are developing a slide show application for a STB under nano-X. The slide
show needs some buttons (it is a rather advanced slide show). When a button
is active (mouse over) it changes appearance as well as putting descriptive
text in a rectangle on the slide (plus more).
The question is whether we are best off treating the areas on the screen (an
activated button might change the appearance of several rectangular ares on
the screen) as windows with window id's or whether we should just let the
button handle the areas in some other way?
We believe that there is a point in making the areas as windows, thus be
able to receive events "directly", but we have had many discussions about it
and we wanted to get a the gut feel from more experienced people.
