Using Multiple Mice with proCONTROL
May 20th, 2007, 5:53pm
 
Hello, I am excited to see that it is possible to receive input from multiple mice using the proCONTROL library.

Does anyone know how to disable a mouse's control of the operating system? Idealy, I would have 3+ mice hooked up into my Processing program (using the xy and buttons), and none of these mice would interact with the operating system, because this might cause undesired havoc such as windows closing and opening or expose going off.

I am on a Mac Book Pro with Mac OS X 10.4.

Thank you!

You can't disable the OS like that.  You can, however, use Processing's "presentation" mode so the whole screen is taken over, thereby saving your OS from havoc wrought by mice.

Here is the API and the library itself.
