Checkboxes only change state when label is clicked

[RudolfVonKrugstein]

it seems to me, that checkboxes (state buttons in general) only change there state when I click on the label, not when I click on the remaining button.

That behavior is different to normal buttons. I did not find the code part that is responsible, but I am wondering why this behavior is the way it is, because I think it should be changed.

There is nod specific code for such behavior. They should act like normal buttons in terms of mouse interactions. Is it the case for all targets or just for some of them?

[RudolfVonKrugstein]

I test it on flash and linux64, and it happens on both targets.

It is interesting. In my skin I detect if a button is pressed by using the "pressed" attribte (drawing it differently if it is). So a checkbox gets pressed when I click on it anywhere. But when I relase the mouse, it only changes its state if the click was on the label.

If I comment out the line

        //this.mouseChildren = true;

in the constructor of Checkbox, it works ...
