Unexpected mouseConstraint behavior on mouse leaving end re-entering p5 canvas creates

[alexf77]

Using p5 for rendering, I discovered a weird behavior:

Screen.Recording.2025-01-03.at.10.00.31.mov

• clicking and dragging a body
• mouse leaves canvas without releasing button
• body is detached from mouse and falls as expected
• while mouse is outside canvas, button is released
• mouse reenters canvas
• when mouse is hovering over the previously dragged body, the body becomes attached to mouse
• on mousedown it is released

I found this solution with the help of Copilot:

canvas.elt.addEventListener("mouseout", () => {
    canvasMouse.button = -1;
  });

for a newbie like me it would be helpful if this were mentioned in the docs, or perhaps even default behavior
