Mouse Position??

[Rabbit]

I have a single image which have 4 portion. I want to call different program when I click on different part of the image. How can I know which portion the mouse is clicked on?

 

[Jupiter]

Define Var vX As Int Extent 2 No-undo.
Procedure GetCursorPos External "USER32.DLL":
    Define Output Parameter vX As Long.
End Procedure.
Run GetCursorPos (Output vx).
Message  vx[1] vx[2]
    View-as Alert-box Info Buttons Ok.

The above code returns you mouse positions. The rest should be easy.

I got an error message 1183 (Cannot pass arrays as run-time parameter). Is it because I am using V8.3?

 

[Jupiter]

Define Variable vx As Memptr.
Set-size (vx) = 8.
Procedure GetCursorPos External "USER32.DLL":
    Define Output Parameter vX As Memptr.
End Procedure.
Run GetCursorPos (Output vx).
MESSAGE Get-long (vx,1) Get-long (vx,5)
    VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX INFO BUTTONS OK.

Please check if this works with the version you are working.

Y Dont U use a number of images to make 1 BIG image. That way each image has a handle with it's own events / triggers.

Hmm... good piece of lateral thinking!
Now Rabbit has more than one options!

Hi,


There is an OCX object into this Website called "XImage.OCX":

This object give the coordenates from X and Y when you click in a image loaded in it.

The last-event system handle will give you the x and y cooridinates of the last mouse click.

last-event:x
last-event:y

is the syntax. It can give you a few other things as well
