The following code example shows how to use the Event.filter function. In this example, mouse events are passed on only when the mouse pointer is in a certain region.

let form = new Form(Text = "F# Windows Form",
                    Visible = true,
                    TopMost = true)
form.MouseMove
    |> Event.filter ( fun evArgs -> evArgs.X > 100 && evArgs.Y > 100)
    |> Event.add ( fun evArgs ->
        form.BackColor <- System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(
            evArgs.X, evArgs.Y, evArgs.X ^^^ evArgs.Y) )
