Dragging prevents pointer move events.

[Cybermaxke]

Affects: 0.2.0-build127

While dragging it's not possible to receive any other mouse move events, I traced the issue back to the MouseMotionListener that is being registered. mouseMoved will not be called while dragging is active, mouseDragged is called in that case.

I currently have the following temporary workaround:

fun main() = Window(title = "Porygen", size = IntSize(600, 1000)) {
  Root()

  // Get the wrapped ComposeLayer
  val window = AppWindowAmbient.current!!.window.contentPane.getComponent(0)
  // Get the original motion listener
  val listener = window.mouseMotionListeners.first()
  window.addMouseMotionListener(object : MouseMotionListener {
    override fun mouseDragged(e: MouseEvent) {
      // Also trigger mouse moved so we don't get locked
      // out of other pointer events while dragging
      listener.mouseMoved(e)
    }
    override fun mouseMoved(e: MouseEvent) {
    }
  })
}

Thanks for the MouseMotionListener tip 👍

Any progress on this issue?

Should be fixed in 0.4.0-build190.

Now both Swing's mouseDragged/mouseMoved events are treated as Modifier.pointerInput and Modifier.pointerMove events (we plan to integrate pointerMove onExit/onEnter into pointerInput in the future).
