Set Mouse X and Y in A Window

[captain_skank]

Hi,

Is there a way to set the x,y of the mouse cursor in a window without using the mouse library ??

I have a window that i use windowmousex and windowmousey to fake a mouse over but i'd like to set the inital position well away from these areas.

Thanks

Code: Select all

SetCursorPos_(x, y)

dood - you are a lifesaver.

Funnily enough I was just flicking through the API but didn't register that setcursor would set the mouse position just the text cursor position.

Thanks

The mouse pointer actually is called 'cursor' while the pointer for text is called 'caret'.
At least those are the terms that are used for WinAPI.
