Mouse detecting stuff

[Dark_Raver 0]

so im trying to make something (its a secret ..ok its still forming in my head )

but it involves detecting mouse clicks (left, right and scroller) and the distance traveled

i have completely no clue on the click detection

i tried the mouse distance and i could do it for like 25%

it has to automaticly update on a gui (no problem)

but the way i did it is fairly complicated (it uses 5 vars to detect the distance (calculates but anyway)) but it resets to zero every time

so any ideas? oh it has to be able to save and reloaded from a ini file or so but thats just a iniwrite in the end or so i think

btw, i jsut saw i posted it in the wrong forum can anyone move this please?

measure distance maybe like this

HotKeySet("{F7}","startmeas")
HotKeySet("{F8}","stopmeas")
HotKeySet("{F9}","exitnow")
global $lastpos,$dist=0
while 1
    
    sleep (40)
WEnd
Func exitnow()
    Exit
EndFunc

func startmeas()
    
    $lastpos = mousegetpos()
    adlibenable("measure",100)
EndFunc

Func stopmeas()
    AdlibDisable()
    Tooltip("")
EndFunc

func measure()
Local $mp = MouseGetPos()

Local $lastdist = (($mp[0] - $lastpos[0])^2 + ($mp[1] - $lastpos[1])^2)^0.5
$dist += $lastdist
$lastpos = $mp
tooltip(Int($dist),$mp[0],$mp[1]-20)
EndFunc

sweet it works

never ised adlib, forgot it existed

i have modified it to my needs and it runs like a charm

but can you explain this perhaps?

(($mp[0] - $lastpos[0])^2 + ($mp[1] - $lastpos[1])^2)^0.5

now just need the mouse clikc detection and im on my way again ;D
