"Run application and selecte ...Hook as default" should be
Run application and select "All controls via AppEvents" as detection method.

Obviously, using the right mouse button as the mouse gesture activator and at the same time assigning a popup to the memo, is asking for trouble.

I don't see that we can do anything about it. In short: don't combine the two.

Unless you can come up with a viable approach to combine the two, I am afraid we will have to close this issue with a "won't fix" status.

Well not excactly.

If you see how mouse gestures are implemented in e.g Firefox you'll se that mouse click and drag messages are "eaten" if gesture is executed. e.g no menu is displayed.

The problem seems to be that when the popup is displayed, the message pump for the menu is never started, but I haven't been able to determine why.

Try this:

{$IFDEF VCL}
function JvMouseGestureHook(Code: Integer; wParam: Word; lParam: Longword): Longword; stdcall;
var
  locY: Integer;
  locX: Integer;
begin
  if (Code < 0) or not (JvMouseGestureHookActive) then
  begin
    Result := CallNextHookEx(JvCurrentHook, Code, wParam, lParam);
    Exit;
  end;
  Result := Code;

  with PMouseHookStruct(lParam)^ do
  begin
    locX := pt.X;
    locY := pt.Y;
  end;

  if wParam = WM_MOUSEMOVE then
    JvMouseGestureInterpreter.TrailMouseGesture(locX, locY);
  if wParam = JvMouseButtonDown then
    JvMouseGestureInterpreter.StartMouseGesture(locX, locY)
  else
  if wParam = JvMouseButtonUp then
    JvMouseGestureInterpreter.EndMouseGesture;
  Result := CallNextHookEx(JvCurrentHook, Code, wParam, lParam); // NEW!
end;
{$ENDIF VCL}

Thanks!!

Adding:
Result := CallNextHookEx(JvCurrentHook, Code, wParam, lParam); // NEW!
