Implemented SetMouse() ?

[Paul59]

I seem to recall a SetMouse() function in Blitz Basic (or maybe B3d?) - if there's not such a function in CX (and I can't find it if there is!) it could be useful for the desktop target.

No there isn't right now

It would be very easy to add such a function, it is in glfw3.h.

GLFWAPI void glfwSetCursorPos(GLFWwindow* window, double xpos, double ypos);

In "targets/glfw3/modules/native/glfwgame.cpp"
Add:

in ...class BBGlfwGame : public BBGame{...

virtual void SetMousePosition( float xpos, float ypos );

...private:...

and this:

...}...

void BBGlfwGame::SetMousePosition( float xpos, float ypos ){
        glfwSetCursorPos( _window, xpos, ypos);
}

...String BBGlfwGame::PathToFilePath( String path ){...

in "modules/mojo/app.cxs"
Add:

..End...

Function SetMouse:Void(x:Float,y:float)
    _game.SetMousePosition(x,y)
End

...Function DeviceWidth:Int()...

in "modules/brl/native/gametarget.cpp"
Add:

in ...class BBGame{...

virtual void SetMousePosition(float x,float y);

...};...

and this:

...}...

void BBGame::SetMousePosition(float x,float y){
}

...//***** C++ Game *****...

In "modules/brl/gametarget.cxs"
Add:

in ...Class BBGame Extends Null...

Method SetMousePosition:Void(x:Float,y:float)

...End...

Copy and paste only the functions, what is in "..." no.
I've tried it and it works, but as always something will be forgotten

Before you posted that, i had this already put into my local dev version. It will be called SetMousePos.
