H2o-KiD Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 I just tried to use Mouse Locator for detecting mouse's coordinates but It doesn't work in a Full Screen Program? Help please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan H Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 I've had simular issues.. my work around has been to get the coords in windowed mode, then subtract 11 from the Y coord. Additionally, some programs seem to disable getting coords (screen or window) even in windowed mode the coords stop updating when mouse is overtop of that programs window. To work around this, I move the Mouse locator to the postion on the screen I want and guesstimate the location. Hope some of that helps!

joe Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 Not knowing more of the specifics, I would guess that full-screen mode actually means non-window mode. Since the Mouse Locator dialog is a window, it probably can't be displayed unless you are in a window mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan H Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 Ah.. I should be more clear. If possible, you need to switch the program from full screen to windowed (alt+enter usually works, or might need a switch in program paramaters)... take the screen positions you need in windowed mode, then subtract 11 (if you are running in 1024x768 screen resolution) from the Y coord to make the posistions valid for full screen mode.

Strathos Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 Have you tried to use "Ctrl + Space" (In the mouse move window)? "Press Ctrl+Space to save the current mouse coordinates." You could try using a macro like this one.. Get Mouse Position Screen: %N1%, %N2% Text Box Display: %N1% and %N2% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o-KiD Posted December 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 I know "Ctrl+Space" can very quickly gives Coordinate in Full Screen but one more thing, If I want to know the "Pixel Color" of the location in Full Screen program? Please help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strathos Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 The command "Get Pixel Color" will do that. It's placed under the Commands Category "System". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
