Thanks Andrew.
We looked into the link.
However if our application is not active and the user enters the
selection capture mode using Hot Keys, how do we capture the
active state of close, minimize, zoom, scroll buttons of the
application currently on screen?
Since we put up a transparent window to handle the selection drawing,
we have to activate our application to receive mouse and key events.
Because of this the previously active application gets deactivated.
Is there any workaround for this?
Regards,
Srinivas

Yes: CGWindow.
