Hello,
Where is the mouse? Any tips?
Thanks.
Code: Select all
InitMouse()
InitSprite()
InitKeyboard()
xscreen = 150
yscreen = 150
WindowID = OpenWindow(0, 30, 30, xscreen, yscreen, #PB_Window_ScreenCentered|#PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_MinimizeGadget,"")
OpenWindowedScreen(WindowID, 0, 0, xscreen, yscreen, 0, 0, 0)
Repeat
ExamineKeyboard()
If KeyboardPushed(#PB_Key_Escape)
End
EndIf
ExamineMouse()
StartDrawing(ScreenOutput())
Circle(MouseX(),MouseY(),3,RGB(100,100,100))
StopDrawing()
FlipBuffers()
Delay(10)
ForEver

Hmm .. maybe this helps (avoid
ExamineMouse() )
Code: Select all
InitMouse()
InitSprite()
InitKeyboard()
xscreen = 150
yscreen = 150
WindowID = OpenWindow(0, 30, 30, xscreen, yscreen, #PB_Window_ScreenCentered|#PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_MinimizeGadget,"")
OpenWindowedScreen(WindowID, 0, 0, xscreen, yscreen, 0, 0, 0)
Repeat
Select WindowEvent()
Case #WM_CLOSE
End
EndSelect
ExamineKeyboard()
If KeyboardPushed(#PB_Key_Escape)
End
EndIf
GetCursorPos_(CursorPosition.POINT)
MouseX = CursorPosition\x - WindowX()
MouseY = CursorPosition\y - WindowY() - 20
StartDrawing(ScreenOutput())
Circle(MouseX,MouseY,3,RGB(100,100,100))
StopDrawing()
FlipBuffers()
Delay(10)

You can use this:
ShowCursor_(1) ; display the mouse pointer
You'll see that it looks busy all the time though (as an hourglass)... I'll still puzzling thru this windows stuff too, but it looks like you need to check window events even if you aren't going to us them.... I call a WindowEvent() command right around the delay command also.
Updated code:
Code: Select all
InitMouse()
InitSprite()
InitKeyboard()
xscreen = 150
yscreen = 150
WindowID = OpenWindow(0, 30, 30, xscreen, yscreen, #PB_Window_ScreenCentered|#PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_MinimizeGadget,"")
OpenWindowedScreen(WindowID, 0, 0, xscreen, yscreen, 0, 0, 0)
ShowCursor_(1) ; display the mouse pointer
Repeat
ExamineKeyboard()
If KeyboardPushed(#PB_Key_Escape)
End
EndIf
ExamineMouse()
StartDrawing(ScreenOutput())
Circle(MouseX(),MouseY(),3,RGB(100,100,100))
StopDrawing()
FlipBuffers()
Delay(10) : WindowEvent()
ForEver
I don't know if this is the right way to do it, but it's been working for me thus far....
