Is it possible to capture mouse events with SW?

Is it possible to capture mouse events with SW?

(OP)
I would like to be able to click on a part in an assembly and capture the mouse click event (either left or right mouse button) to be able to do things like: drag the component to a different location, display a context-sensitive menu based on what part is selected, etc.

Can someone point me to an example of this.  I couldn't find anything similar in the SW API manual or website.

Look up "Add Popup Menu Item Example" in the SW API help index.

You don't fight destiny, no sir... and you don't eat crackers in the bed of your future!
