"""
Do a mouseclick somewhere, move the mouse to some destination, release
the button. This class gives click- and release-events and also draws
a line or a box from the click-point to the actual mouseposition
(within the same axes) until the button is released. Within the
method 'self.ignore()' it is checked wether the button from eventpress
and eventrelease are the same.
