Hmmm...I'm not near my PythonCard machine today (don't use it much 
nowadays, unfortunately), but am I right in thinking that on_mouseUp 
only gets called from components and not the background window?

I don't think PythonCard offers the equivalant of a wx.Frame - could you 
create a blank Image component and make it the full size of the window, 
so it would catch mouse events not picked up by you other components?
