I'm not sure if warping the mouse cursor would be an improvement in useability. Usually doing so is considered a bad thing by user interface guidelines. > I think it's better that after the use of ccorner view drag tool, > the mouse stay in the used tool, don't you think so? what do you mean when you say 'mouse stay in the used tool' ?? > gdk: > gdk_fb_mouse_get_info (&winx, &winy, mask); > > xlib: > XQueryPointer( dpy, w, &root_win, &win, > &x, &y, &win_x, &win_y, &state_mask ) these are function to retrieve the pointer position, but they don't allow to set it. There's no way we will introduce calls to the GdkFB layer or let alone Xlib. Of course there's a way to get the pointer position using plain GDK, but I think there's still no way to warp the pointer to a different screen location. Salut, Sven
