capture_mouse ( atom window )

This forces a mouse to keep the position it had when it left a window. If you call this while the cursor is in the 'double-arrow stance, it will keep that. However, if it has the normal arrow position when it is called, it will make the cursor turn into a wait stance while it is over the specified window.

Forces a wxWindow to repaint itself. params can take one of several forms:

• atom: this pointer to wxWindow to be refreshed. erase_background is set to 1
• sequence:
  • { this, erase_background}
  • { this, erase_background, x1, y1, x2, y2}
  • If erase_background is 0, then the background is not erased before repainting.
