mouse


Recommended Posts

hello,

I would like to get the mouse coordinates and display some kind of drawing (such as a cross or a cursor or a white arrow) that would follow the mouse and get updated everytime the mouse moves (so basically it just redraws the mouse whereever it is).

It would need to be lightweight so that it works flawlessly as the mouse moves.

The thing is that there's a bug in divx web players that makes the mouse disappear and not appear again, which is VERY hirritating.

If you could help me it would prevent me from going mad and jump out of the window.

I'm just a newbie at programming but I'm guessing this is easy for you, and I come to this site because I've heard this is probably the easiest way to make it work, in just a few lines of code.

Thanks a lot for your help.

no it's not for full screen. It's just for any normal application.

The thing is, the mouse disappears while playing the divx, but doesn't appear afterwards wherever you go in the browser, so basically you have to kill firefox to be able to use the mouse again, which is very frustating.

I guess there are simple functions to get the mouse position and draw something on the screen.

Thanks for your concern

Nevermind me, but it seems you need to get a new login-names list.

It's just the first part of my password, which I indeed typed randomly.

Is MvGulik your real name or Gender: Not Telling your gender?

Anyway does that really matter to the problem at hand?

Can you please help me to find out how to retrieve the mouse coordinates and then display a cross on the screen please?

That would really help me.

Thanks a lot.

Your welcome. (matter of speech of course)

And thanks for clearing that up.

That seems to be the idea here.

SPI_SETCURSORS, 0x0057, Reloads the system cursors. Set the uiParam parameter to zero and the pvParam parameter to NULL.

why not try it out ... (setup a little script that acts on two hotkeys, one to quit the script again, and a other to run those 2 lines.) Edited by MvGulik

Here someting I found in my code collections:

#include<WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>

$crosscolor = 0x0000FF
#Region - GUI Create
$gui = GUICreate('MouseCross', 25, 25, -1, -1, $WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW + $WS_EX_LAYERED + $WS_EX_TRANSPARENT + $WS_EX_TOPMOST)
$transcol = 0xABCDEF
If $crosscolor = $transcol Then $transcol = 0xFBCDEF
GUISetBkColor($transcol)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 11, 0, 3, 10)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $crosscolor)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 11, 15, 3, 10)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $crosscolor)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 0, 11, 10, 3)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $crosscolor)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 15, 11, 10, 3)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $crosscolor)
GUISetState()

#EndRegion - GUI Create

$mouse_info = GUIGetCursorInfo()
$cursor_id = $mouse_info[4]
HotKeySet("{Esc}", "_Exit")

_WinAPI_SetLayeredWindowAttributes($gui, $transcol)

#Region - GUI SelectLoop
While 1
    WinMove($gui, "", MouseGetPos(0) - 12, MouseGetPos(1) - 12)
    Sleep(10)
WEnd
#EndRegion - GUI SelectLoop

Func _Exit()
    Exit
EndFunc

Maybe helpful for you!

Happy new year,
