I'm looking for the common names of the four basic control states (for desktop interfaces):
- Control is in its default state;
- Cursor is hovering above the control;
- Control is being pressed;
- Control is being held down, but the cursor is outside its pressing zone
So far I could come up with the following names:
- default;
- under cursor;
- pressed under cursor;
- pressed
But I don't think those are very good. Shorter and more intuitive names would look much better in code. Perhaps there are common names for each of these states?
