MouseMove question

I want to know how can I use the mousemove effect.
And also how to disable the things it did.
can you help me?

what exactly do you mean?

the mouse move effect launches when someone puts there mouse over the object (text box, label, command button, image, etc.)

lets say you have a label and a form put this code in and see what happens:

Code:

---

Private Sub Form_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Label1.BackColor = vbRed
Form1.BackColor = vbRed
End Sub

Private Sub Label1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Label1.BackColor = vbBlue
Form1.BackColor = vbYellow
End Sub

---

Or do you mean setting the mouse pos?

Code:

---

'Mouse Move
Private Declare Function SetCursorPos Lib "user32" (ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long) As Long

Public Sub Command1_Click()
  'Set Cursor Pos
    SetCursorPos 680, 480
End Sub

---

Please provide more detail if that't not what you are looking for.

To disablew the mouse move event, you would have to subclass your App.

I meant what dimava said.
But what if I want that after the mouse is no longer on
the label, the settings will resume?

Three ideas:

#1: use the SetCapture API

#2: if you have vb5 or vb6, look in the vb samples for the activex control projects and look in them for examples on the SetCapture API

#3: go to msdn.microsoft.com and download the SoftButtons sample code for VB

I don't think I need to use an api.
I just want to know how to change the settings
when the mouse is no longer on the button.

If you have mnay controls on your Form and do not want to add the same code to all their MouseMove events, simply use the following instead.

Add it to a Form with a Timer and a CommandButton.

Code:

---

Private Declare Function WindowFromPoint Lib "user32" (ByVal xPoint As Long, ByVal yPoint As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function GetCursorPos Lib "user32" (lpPoint As POINTAPI) As Long
Private Type POINTAPI
    x As Long
    y As Long
End Type


Private Sub Form_Load()
    Timer1.Interval = 1
End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()

    Dim PT As POINTAPI
    Dim WND As Long
   
    'Get the Cursor postion and the hWnd it's on
    GetCursorPos PT
    WND = WindowFromPoint(PT.x, PT.y)
   
    'Check if the hWnd the mouse is over is Command1
    If WND = Command1.hWnd Then Command1.Caption = "Mouse is on Command1" Else Command1.Caption = "Mouse is not on Command1"
   
End Sub
