Looking at the GLFW we can use glfwSetMousePosCallback(GLFWmouseposfun cbfun) to set the mouse position... but its a call back command, and I think it needs to be set when the window is started.

With Mojo code this is within the gxtkApp:Run class.

Around line 825 in mojo.glfw.cpp we need this:

glfwSetMousePosCallback(MousePosCallback)


But Im not sure where to put the rest of the code...

Any help?

Actually, that GLFW function is used to "SET" a callback function to "RECEIVE" mouse move events, not to set the position of the mouse cursor ... :)

Ahh I missed read doco... so can you set the mouse cursor position?

Not via GLFW, so you'll have to make use of OS specific code.

Just found this command:

glfwSetMousePos(x, y);

Works for Windows at least...
