I have run into an issue where when you use the onPress function, it won’t register the second onPress event if the mouse doesn’t move and the user clicks the same pixel. I have to use onPress, and am wondering if there is a way around this. It is just a little annoying that I have to move my mouse to have it catch that second onPress…

Any suggestions appreciated, thanks. 🍺
