|phoenix_title|  **wx.MouseCaptureChangedEvent**
==========================================================================================================================================

An mouse capture changed event is sent to a window that loses its mouse capture.          

This is called even if :meth:`wx.Window.ReleaseMouse`   was called by the application code. Handling this event allows an application to cater for unexpected capture releases which might otherwise confuse mouse handling code.
