## FLmouse

FLmouse — Returns the mouse position and the state of the three mouse buttons.

## Description

Plugin opcode in widgets. This opcode is part of the plugin repository and has to be installed separately. These FLTK widgets do not work on the Mac. The plugin repository can be found here: https://github.com/csound/plugins

FLmouse returns the coordinates of the mouse position within an FLTK panel and the state of the three mouse buttons.

## Syntax

    kx, ky, kb1, kb2, kb3 FLmouse [imode]

## Initialization

imode – (optional, default = 0) Determines the mode for mouse location reporting.

- 0 - Absolute position normalized to range 0-1

- 1 - Absolute raw pixel position

- 2 - Raw pixel position, relative to FLTK panel

## Performance

kx, ky – the mouse coordinates, whose range depends on the imode argument (see above).

kb1, kb2, kb3 – the states of the mouse buttons, 1 when corresponding button is pressed, 0 when the button is not pressed.

FLmouse returns the coordinates of the mouse position and the state of the three mouse buttons. The coordinates can be retrieved in three modes depending on the imode argument value (see above). Modes 0 and 1 report mouse position in relation to the complete screen (Absolute mode), while mode 2, reports the pixel position within an FLTK panel. Notice that FLmouse is only active when the mouse cursor passes on an FLpanel area.

## Examples

Here is an example of the FLmouse opcode. It uses the file FLmouse.csd.
