when you say leaving the blitz3d window, you mean while still active? if so! heres one possable method.

you would need to create a .decls 
.lib "user32.dll"
GetCursorPos%(lppoint*):"GetCursorPos"
WindowFromPoint%(lppoint*):"WindowFromPoint"


now get the blitz3d hwnd pointer using SystemProperty("AppHwnd") and check against the hwnd pointer returned from the api call WindowFromPoint()

bank = createbank(8)
GetCursorPos(bank)
hwnd_under_pointer = WindowFromPoint(bank)
blitz3d_hwnd = SystemProperty("AppHwnd")

this is untested but should work.
