[PD] In 2019 is there a way to detect mouse down/up?

[Liam Goodacre]

You can receive mouse and mouseup information in Vanilla by using [receive .x55dca8289140], where ".x55dca8289140" is a hexadecimal ID unique to the given canvas. However, the only way I know of retrieving that ID is using [hcs/canvasname], which is back to using externals.

If you accept externals then [iemguts/receivecanvas] is definitely the best way to go.

Not the best solution, but you may be able to monitor a slider for value changes to emulate a click-down, click-up situation... so you'd be tricking a click-drag :)
