Cursor position

How could i receive the client coordinates of the cursor in an edit
box?

GetCursorPos?

you can retrieve the caret rect with GetGUIThreadInfo:

btw getcursorpos retrieves the mouse cursor position.

sorry caret rather :-/

do i need anything extra to use the GUITHREADINFO struct?

i'm using VC++5 and my prog is in MFC. it's not recognizing this
struct as valid

any help?

eh dunno :s maybe you should install the PSDK?

guh, i was afraid you were gonna say that

what's wrong with GetCaretPos?

dunno :p

CWnd::GetCaretPos
static CPoint PASCAL GetCaretPos( );

Return Value

CPoint object containing the coordinates of the caret's position.

Remarks

Retrieves the client coordinates of the caret's current position and returns them as a CPoint.

The caret position is given in the client coordinates of the CWnd window.



silly, it's exactly what i wanted :rolleyes: :p
