Synthesised mouse movement problems (Reformatted)

Hi

I'm synthesising mouse movement using mouse_event(), in relative
mode.  If I synthesis the mouse movement over a menu, it tracks 
correctly and the menu bar items are highlighted correctly.  
Because my mouse-position generating device does not yet handle 
clicking, I synthesis mouse movements to the correct position on 
a menu, then use a real mouse to click on a menu item.  Once 
I've clicked using a real mouse, however, the menu seems to stop 
picking up my synthesised movements!  Moving the real mouse
over menu items causes them to be highlighted correctly, but the 
synthesised movements don't (although the mouse cursor still 
moves correctly).

I know that synthesised movements are indistinguishable from 
real ones, but there certainly does seem to be something odd 
happening here ... any ideas?

(PS: Sorry for the double post; the first one was unreadable due to the lack of linewrapping!)
