How do you get the mouse coordinates?

[bioloyx]

I'm sorry for my lack of knowledge, but I don't know how...

Thanks in advance.

[Rogue5099]

$MousePos = MouseGetPos()

$MousePos[0] ; Mouse X position

$MousePos[1] ; Mouse Y position

[bioloyx]

how do you use this?

sorry...

[Ace08]

well that depends on how you intend to use the coordiantes rogue5099 already gave what you need or is it not?

$MousePos = MouseGetPos()
$MousePos[0] ; Mouse X position
$MousePos[1] ; Mouse Y position 
msgbox(0,"Debug","Cursor located at " & $MousePos[0] & "," & $MousePos[1])

Be serious !

when i paste "coordinates" in the search Tab of AutoIt help file, i find :

MouseGetPos,

_WinAPI_GetMousePos

_WinAPI_GetMousePosX

_WinAPI_GetMousePosY

with examples !

I think what he is asking is  , Picture a grid on your screen and move the  cursor  to any spot on monitor HOW will he know what Cord to enter in his script . kinda like a road map looking for the cord of a st or an ave

Welcome @CODEXTRM,

You realize you answered a 5 years old topic?

AutoIt has a built in application that allows the user to find x and y coordinates. See picture below. 

Another option is to use this script that displays the coordinates of where the cursor is click on the computer.

#include <Misc.au3>

HotKeySet("{END}", "_Quit") ; Hit "END" to quit

$dll = DllOpen("user32.dll")
While 1
    If _IsPressed("01", $dll) Then
        $avMousePos = MouseGetPos()
        ToolTip("x = " & $avMousePos[0] & "  y = " & $avMousePos[1])
    EndIf
WEnd

Func _Quit()
    DllClose($dll)
    Exit
EndFunc   ;==>_Quit

And if you want to move the mouse to a certain location and then reset the cursor back in the original position then you can use this piece of code.

Sleep(3000)
$pos=MouseGetPos()
MouseClick("left",200,200,1,0)
MouseMove($pos[0],$pos[1],0)

 Feel free to browse the forums!

The correct answer is: >>AUTOIT V3<< from where the program is installed.

Your post made no sense whatsoever,  and added nothing to the discussion. Please think about what you're typing before you his Enter.

Ok, here is the translation of the question, as i did had this question in mind today when i find this on google and in my despair found that the correct answer wasn't here:

 

 

He asked: How and From where, should anyone in need, could open mouse capture program. (as it isn't obvious from where can anybody open it)

 

The correct answer is: You have to go in the folder where you installed autoit.exe and open Au3Info.exe

 

I've searched scite menu for a button to open this to no avail ...

[JLogan3o13]

That still makes no sense. Plain and simple, explain what you are trying to do. Hopefully you did not begin this thread in an attempt, with your own limited knowledge, to answer someone else's posted question.
