QUESTION: How can I get the current coordinates of the mouse? ANSWER: The windows unit provides a wrapper around the Windows API function, GetCursorPos. Passing a TPoint into the function will retrieve the coordinates of the cursor. The following code illustrates how to get the values of the coordinates of the cursor from a button click. procedure Form1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject); var foo: TPoint; begin GetCursorPos(foo) ShowMessage( '(' + IntToStr(foo.X) + ' ,' + IntToStr( foo.Y ) + ')' ); end; |
