Finding Pixel Coordinates

[gsprout]

HI.

I haven't used AutoIT for several years... it use to be that you would get the location of the cursor, relative to the target window, when you used the Window Spy program, now called Autowindow. However, the coordinates of the cursor which are displayed now see to be relative to my whole desktop. Is there an easy or quick way to get the location of the cursor relative to the target window? My apologies in advance as I realize this has probably been addressed dozens of times but I could not find a search function on these forums.

Opt("MouseCoordMode", 0)        ;1=absolute, 0=relative, 2=client

While 1
    Sleep(10)
    $xy = MouseGetPos()
    ToolTip("X: "&$xy[0]&@CRLF&"Y: "&$xy[1])
WEnd

Relative to the active window.

Now I'm really confused. If I am trying to get the mouse coordinates relative tothe target window using Au3Info.exe ... how would I use that piece of code?

In the Windows Info Tool look into options along the top and be amazed at what you find.

Ah... dang... this software has improved immeasurably since I last used it! Thanks.
