WinGetCaretPos ( )
Contents |
Description
Returns the coordinates of the caret in the foreground window.
Parameters
None
Return Value
Success: Returns a 2-element array containing the following information:
$array[0] = X coordinate $array[1] = Y coordinate
Failure: Returns 0.
Remarks
WinGetCaretPos might not return accurate values for Multiple Document Interface (MDI) applications if absolute CaretCoordMode is used.
See example for a workaround. Note: Some applications report static coordinates regardless of caret position!
Example
$a = WinGetCaretPos(); if($a) { println("First Method Pos $a[0], $a[1]"); } // More reliable method to get caret coords in MDI text editors. Function _CaretPos() { my List ( $x_adjust = 5, $y_adjust = 40 ); my $t = array(); Opt("CaretCoordMode", 0); //relative mode my $c = WinGetCaretPos(); //relative caret coords my $w = WinGetPos(""); //window's coords my $f = ControlGetFocus("",""); //text region "handle" my $e = ControlGetPos("", "", $f); //text region coords If ( isVarArray($c) && isVarArray($w) && isVarArray($e) ) { $t[0] = $c[0] + $w[0] + $e[0] + $x_adjust; $t[1] = $c[1] + $w[1] + $e[1] + $y_adjust; Return $t; //absolute screen coords of caret cursor } else return 0; }
