Hi,

I am working on a small graphical tool in which I can place "objects"
(circles and boxes) on the main panel of my application. Then I can
connect these boxes with lines. If I drag an object from one place to
another, all connected lines are updated to the new position. The
connections are derived from Component and in the paint method I simply
draw th line.

My real problem now is that the main pane is the component used for
adding new components to the main pane. If I want to place a new object
near a connection the mouse-event is sent to the connections
mouse-listener.

How can I decide that an event isn't processed in the component that
recieved the event and pass it back to the components underneath?
