LO-Doc Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 In MacroExpress we do have a good function to move the mouse pointer to the cursor position. How would you do that in AutoIt. Mousegetpos() only finds the mousepointer, but unfortunately not the cursorpositon (x,y). Best regards Bernhard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rad Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I think the Caret is the 'hotspot' of a cursor, if you ever made your own cursor before you would know what i mean. The text-area cursor's hotspot is in the center (the I cursor), where the regular cursor it the top left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CaretThe term caret is also sometimes used in graphical user interface terminology where it means a text insertion point indicator, frequently represented by a blinking vertical bar. In this context, it may be used interchangeably with the word cursor, although the latter term is often reserved for a mouse pointer.
