When I think of someone drawing something, or writing a signature, I think of someone moving the mouse, not using the scrollwheel on the mouse: when you say "scroll my mouse," what exactly do you mean ?

A frequently found convention in drawing programs, where you want to record some number of points as the mouse moves, is to start and stop a Timer with mouse-down, and mouse-up events. Of course you can do it another way, but ... assuming the Timer is running ... aren't you going to get some unwanted extra points, or lines, or curves, or whatever, when you go to move off the "canvas" to click the stop button ?

What exactly is the "canvas" you are drawing on ?
