Short: Puts Mouse Pointer anywhere on screen
Author: splayer@netcom.ca (Allan Versaevel)
Uploader: splayer@netcom.ca (Allan Versaevel)
Type: util/boot
CPointer 2.2a is a simple utility that will centre the mouse pointer on boot-up and
much more.
v2.2a improves MClick and DClick functionality. Works the same, just better.
Features:
- Will centre the mouse pointer on any size screen.(Default)
- User defined co-ordinates can be set.
- Left mousebutton can be activated with delay.
- Double-click can be emulated.
- Works with GFX cards.
NOTE:
*****
CPointer is CLI only. It would become un-neccessarily bigger with
Tooltypes and all. Anyway, putting CPointer in your Startup-Sequence will
have it activated sooner.
Usage:
C:CPointer XPOS/N YPOS/N MCLICK/N DCLICK
XPOS = X position on screen (number required)
YPOS = Y position on screen (number required)
MCLICK = Click left mouse button after so many ticks. (50 ticks = 1 second. 60 if NTSC)
Good for activating a screen like WorkBench after boot. 0-600 allowed (0 to 10 seconds)
DCLICK Works with MCLICK. Will execute a double click. This could be used to have the
pointer double-click on an icon to run it. Use your imagination :)
Installation:
1) Dump CPointer to your C: dir.
2) Fire up your favorite text editor.
3) Now, just before LoadWB add this line:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Run >NIL: C:CPointer XPOS/N YPOS/N MCLICK=<delay> DCLICK (see below for explanation)
C:LoadWB
EndCli >NIL:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Examples:
Run >NIL: C:CPointer ; This will centre the mouse pointer on the current screen
Run >NIL: C:CPointer MCLICK ; This will centre the mouse pointer aswell as activate the current screen.
Run >NIL: C:CPointer MCLICK=250 ; Centre Mouse Pointer on screen. Click left mouse button 4.5 seconds
after Cpointer is run.
Run >NIL: C:CPointer XPOS=100 YPOS=200 MCLICK=250 DCLICK ; Position mouse at 100,200 and double click
left mouse button after 4.5 seconds.
You get the idea......
IF THE XPOS OR YPOS IS GREATER THAN THE SCREEN LIMITS THE MOUSE POINTER WILL BE CENTRED.
Now on every boot, your mouse pointer will be centred on your Workbench
Screen. Put over an icon or icon bay. Run a program through it's icon.
Do what you will. :)
