Learn to use View.Update(), it will remove all of your flickering.
Learn to use procedures, they will cut down the length of your programme from ~400 lines to ~50 lines.
I don't see the point in using breaks for any other purpose than debugging. In this situation, you could just as easily have used a function that would check to see if the mouse coordinates were in the screen. If not, it would return a false value (boolean), which could be used to exit the loop.

i.e.

code:

fcn checkMouse () : boolean
if mouse.x < 0 or mouse.x > _maxx or
mouse.y < 0 or mouse.y > _maxy then
result false
end if
result true
end checkMouse

%...
loop
% do stuff
exit if not checkMouse
end loop

Did you spell it right? Is it applying to the correct window (if there are more than one)? Did you put the View.Update in the correct spot (ie. after everything is drawn, inside your loop)?
