Control over cursor movement?
« on: December 15, 2004, 03:22:38 PM »
I know how to hide the cursor, and how to disable it, but I haven't found a way to "freeze" the cursor, for instance during cutscenes, or have any control over its movement. Am I missing something?

You mean that the user can't move the mouse anymore?

That's what I mean by freeze, yes. All I'm talking about is a way for the programmer to take control of the mouse pointer. MouseX and MouseY are read-only.

Nihil, your picture/caption is the best! I can't look at it without laughing.

Actually they are not read-only anymore, just the documentation is, ahem, slightly outdated :-[ You can also use the Game.SetMousePos() method.

That's awsome, Mnemonic. Thanks! I guess that's a request for the documentation, then. :P
