Mouse Coordinates

aritraemt

Is it possible to get the mouse coordinates stored in some variable for example X,Y ? The coordinates of the entire window and not alone the java frame. Can someone please help..?

Chrisir

X=mouseX;
Y=mouseY;

but this is the java window

maybe robot class can get the absolute coors?

That method does not acquire the coordinates for the whole window. I am unable to find a proper method under the robot class... Thanks in advance.

Can i use Point p = MouseInfo.getPointerInfo().getLocation(); to get the coordinates. if yes how?

Chrisir

can't you add the java frame pos to the mouse pos?

pseudo-Code :

X=frame.posX+mouseX;
Y=frame.posY+mouseY;

Chrisir

PVector p = MouseInfo.getPointerInfo().getLocation();
