Hello All, it's possible to receive events when the main Hollywood windows has lost the focus? This would be great to create system tool bars, launchers, and many other usefull utilities.

Regards, Fabio

No, that's not possible. I'll see if I can implement a global event listener but it's likely not coming soon because it involves quite some effort to get events for non-active windows (the host OS always sends keyboard, mouse clicks etc. events only to the active window; if one wants to listen to these events while not being active, it's getting a lot more complicated).
