Absolute mouse position #30

Open Manny1806 opened 2 years ago

Manny1806 commented 2 years ago

First I wanna say this project is great and has been very useful to me. I've been using the mouse and keyboard emulate functions a lot and it would be awesome if I could send absolute mouse coordinates to mouse_emulate.py rather than just relative movements. Maybe there is a simple alteration I can make to the send_mouse byte array to make this happen?

Hi Manny1806, Thank you for your feedback, I will develop this feature when I have more time.

Hello. I think iOS does not support absolute mouse coordinates (but please correct me if I am wrong). I would also love to see this happen.

hi minoskt, I think you are right, I had tried to develop absolute position in the pass but failed. I'm not sure does it support today.

I haven't tried it in iOS / iPadOS 15. However, your implementation is very generic and would be a nice addition anyway. Thank you for your great work.

Is it possible to get the mouse's current position on an iOS device's screen? Like something that the device sends back to the bluetooth server?

Couldn't you do a relative move, bigger than the screen (taking the "cursor" to the bottom left, and then move to the position you want/need? If the moves are only done from the virtual mouse, you could then keep track of it. Just a thought
