View 1 RepliesI am working on a mouse move for my project. How I do I set the messagebox to show if I have move the mouse, or if I have not move the mouse then show the messagebox?
View 5 RepliesApologies as this has probably been answered a million different times a million different ways already. I'm trying to control the mouse. I wish to move the mouse to a given pixel position (x, y) and cause a click. I don't want this to be limited within a form, as I want to control another application. I'm using VB 2005.
View 4 RepliesI'm currently debugging a form that sets a flag when the mouse button is pressed, then clears the flag when the mouse button is released. As long as the mouse button is pressed, the user can move the mouse around and a few things happen depending on where they move. One of the things that happens is that a timer starts, or stops, and a few things change color depending on the mouse position. The timer starts when it should, then stops when it should, but once stopped, it is not re-starting when it should. I can verify that MouseMove events are getting through, because coloring changes as I move the mouse, as it should. This would be a simple thing to debug...except that it requires the darn mouse button to be down, and it uses the mouse move event. Anybody who has put a breakpoint in a mouse move event handler knows the issue: There are THOUSANDS of them. Worse yet, since the mouse button is necessary for switching to the IDE, as well as setting a breakpoint (technically, a keyboard shortcut could do this if I could shift focus), I can't wait for the problem to happen, then switch to the IDE and set a breakpoint to see what is happening then.Does anybody have any tips or techniques for debugging in mouse move events when the mouse button is down and has to stay that way? As it is, I'm going to have to write some funky code into the method just so that I have a place to get a breakpoint when I need it without breaking on every one of the mouse move events.
View 7 RepliesIf I put this code in the form, the mouse will be moved once. I want it to "freeze" the mouse at the point that its moved at. If I put code in timer (which it is now), the mouse will keep searching for the color, so the mouse moves around like crazy. How do I change my code so that it will "freeze" the mouse once it finds the color? [Code]

View 3 RepliesIs there a way to just move the mouse up and down a little, like a little shake, every 5 minutes or so? I've tried to find ways to do this but I'm very confused. I'm fairly new at visual basic but I think I could understand it if someone gave me an example code with an explanation.

I need to be able to find out if the mouse has been moved, if the mouse hasn't been moved in a minute then use Cursor.Hide() to hide the mouse, if the mouse is moving then I want the mouse to be shown.
To get the Position of the mouse use this: Cursor.Position.X Cursor.Position.Y I don't know how to do this
I need to know the status of the mouse whether it is moving or being idle. How can I do that?

View 9 RepliesIs there a "MOUSEEVENTF_Click"? Also,How would I change this code so that it will click when I move/click my mouse wheel?
If MOUSEEVENTF_WHEEL Then
Call mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN, 0, 0, 0, 0)
Call mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, 0, 0, 0, 0)
End If
EDIT: How would I move the mouse down? Like -10, -10 pixels? or something like that.
Well im trying to make my own basic Slider control just so i can learn abit how to interact with the mouse...
so far i have this:
vb.net:
Private Sub Rectangle_MouseMove(ByVal sender as Object, ByVal e as System.Windows.Input.MouseEventArgs)
[Code]....
so this works while the mouse is on the rectangle.. but if we look how the slider behaves its not the same you click and hold the mouse down and can drag it any where even outside of the window and it still updates its position..
I know how to 'drag and move' a winform by adding following code
Protected Overrides Sub WndProc(ByRef m As Message)
If (((m.Msg = 163) And ClientRectangle.Contains(PointToClient(New Point(m.LParam.ToInt32)))) And (m.WParam.ToInt32 = 2)) Then
m.WParam = CType(1, IntPtr)
[code]....
But after a panel being added to winform, I can not 'drag and move' the winform within that panel area. Any idea of how to 'drag and move' within a panel? I mean the mouse point, click, hold and move within that panel and the winform will follow the mouse movement until I release the mouse button.
'Add these to your form class
Private MouseIsDown As Boolean = False
Private MouseIsDownLoc As Point = Nothing
[code]....
Private Sub PictureBox1_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.MouseMove
Label5.Text = "X:" & e.X
Label6.Text = "Y:" & e.Y
End Sub
Dim objectrect As Rectangle = rects(0)
Dim object_x As Integer = objectrect.X
Dim object_y As Integer = objectrect.Y
Label7.Text = object_x
Label8.Text = object_y
I discovered that these labels are not the same, the mouse move is more accurate. My mouse is currently pointing at the upper left corner of rectangular.

I have a few questions about using the Mouse in a VB program
1. How would I get my program to move my mouse to a color thats anywhere on the screen? I want this done by hotkeys.Example: Lets say the hotkey i want to use is ALT+C and the color is white. When I press ALT+C, it will move to white.
2. How would I simulate a mouse click when the mouse is over a certain color? Again, I would like this done with a hotkey.Example: Lets say Hotkey is ALT+D, and the color again, is white. When I press ALT+D,I want my mouse to start clicking whenever its goes above white. I also want to be able to turn this off. I want to be able to set the "click interval"
3. How would I "move my mouse" downward when I press a HotKey and Click?Example: Lets say my hotkey is ALT+V.I press ALT+V. Then whenever I click my mouse, the mouse cursor will "move" a bit down.I want these to work even when my form isnt in focus.
having some problem with the programming of my cursor. These are my codes below and so far when I run the program, my cursor only moves in one direction. It doesn't change in direction even when I press the other keys to move it in another direction.

I had thought I could use the MouseDown eent to take the control out of the panel and make it belong to the form and then check on the MouseUp event that the location of the control is within one of the other panels.
