Is "Sender" read only or can I set it for another event?

Is it possible inside of an event handler to create a new event?

Inside my _gesture handler I'm checking for a few things (down and up inside a single widget means a 'click'. down in one widget, move, up in another means a 'drag', etc)

In my _Click handler, I get the Sender object and read its tag to figure out where the event originated.

In my _gesture handler, I'd like to fabricate an click event (or a drag) from a given object.

However, if I say something like this in my handler

Sender = v

I get the error below.

Is there a right way to do this from within B4A, or is this only available to a java lib?
