Moving programmatically the mouse pointer (within a tool)??
-
I was wondering if there is a way to move programmatically the mouse pointer, within a Tool.
This may be useful when you have to open a dialog box and want to reposition the mouse pointer where it was before.Thanks in advance for your help

Nope, not with the published API. You could probably write a C extension to do this though, if you could figure out how to hack into SketchUp's handles.

Thanks very much.
I know how to do it via Windows, but if we start programming in Windows SDK instead of Ruby, this is less fun, and more important, additional headaches for deployment.One suggestion would be a few members of the sites, knowledgeable in system programming (Windows and Mac) group their efforts to build a utility libraries (dll) to complement the Ruby API of Sketchup (menu, events in tools, mouse, etc...). Unless the Sketchup SDK is more powerful!
