      User Information:
      Cinema 4D Version:    
      Platform:      
      Language(s) :

      ---------
      Is it possible to obtain the Element ID the mouse is currently over in a dialog from within the
      BFM_GETCURSORINFO message? I want to display a bubble help for GUI elements like Cycle Buttons.

      Edit: There seems to be the   1667853926   ID (don't know its name atm), but it is only available
      for edit fields, not for cycle buttons and alike. 😢

      Edit 2: It's also BFM_GETCURSORINFO, but within the container. I'll check what value it has.

      Edit 3: The BFM_GETCURSORINFO is not always in the message container as I said before, and if
      it is, it always contains a container which in turn only contains a single entry of type LONG and that
      has the value 21.

      Thanks,
      -Niklas

        your best shot might be BFM_ACTION, but it is just a wild guess. I have neither used
        the live action values of BFM_ACTION yet nor have I explored that special case.
