Cool. Ok, I see that MouseEvent is now haxe.ui.events.MouseEvent, even though the API docs show it in haxe.ui.core: http://haxeui.github.io/haxeui-api/haxe/ui/core/MouseEvent.html.

Looks like I can use either button.onClick =... or button.registerEvent(...). They both work for me.

I’d like to keep my GUI bog standard. I don’t plan on making any new widgets, or even changing from the default native styling. Would I still need to use custom components to write my app?

At what point would one find the need to start using custom components? That is, what is the situation that arises that causes one to decide they now need to use a custom component?
