Hi,
is there any way to determine the current position of the cursor ("sometimes visible") on the screen; coordinates x, y?
-> T15B or RunTime ...

Thanks for reply

Joe

Sure, it shouldnt be a problem...

I´m home right now so can´t try it on a panel but following should work.

If you want it in "Point" format

var cursorPos = System.Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position;

You can then access X/Y like this

int cursorPosX = cursorPos.X;

Or if you want X/Y as two INT:

var cursorPosX = System.Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position.X
var cursorPosY = System.Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position.Y

Best Regards

I was trying out a form popup utilizing this cursor position example. Things work dandy through debugging and running the code on Visual Studio with the output CF. But I get the error in the image below when I try and simulate the code in iX Devloper even though the "intelligent code completion" picks up on it. Any thoughts?

Also in just trying to do a pop up form, my end device (QTerm A7) locks up and restarts within a couple of second. Even something as simple as a MessageBox.Show has the same result. Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance.

If you switch your target to a PC, I bet your error will go away. If it does, it means that the code complete is using the .NET libraries rather than the Windows CE .NET libraries.

I have found that the code complete often times does than. The .NET Compact framework most likely doesn't have the Position property.

Sorry Jwphilippi, I didn´t mean try to fool you

I was simulating in a T12C project (looks just lika a T15B in the IDE).

Try use this instead and see if it works

Thank you Mark and Thank you Edmund. I am astounded by ya'lls awesomeness when it comes to programming these HMIs.
