You would be surprised at the advantages the below
function has..

</snip>

sequence cz, control_zone

control_zone = {{ your nested sequence of routine_ids and coordinates }}

integer control_len, lit
control_len = length(control_zone)

function onControl_Check(integer event, integer x, integer y, integer
shift )

for i = 1 to control_len do
    cz = control_zone[i]

    if x < cz[1]
    or x > cz[3]
    or y < cz[2]
    or y > cz[4] then

    else

    lit = i
    return {1,lit}
    end if

end for

return {0,lit}
end function

procedure onMouse_Win(integer event, integer x, integer y, integer shift )
sequence isControl

isControl = onControl_Check(event, x, y, shift)

if isControl[1] = 1 then
   cz = control_zone[lit]

   ..........do something

end if

end procedure

<snip\>

pass onMouse events to this and you could make anypart of the window
secified in a sequence named control_zone do what you want it to.
