coordinates from the position of the mouse

[pascal]

Hello
How do I retrieve the XYZ coordinates from the position of the mouse after a click on the graphic display ?

Which version of Mastercam? With a C-Hook add-in, or a NET-Hook Add-in?

If you create a C-Hook add-in using the CHookWizard that the SDK installs into Visual Studio.

On the 2nd page, select the Modeless Dialog code option. That sample shows "tracking" the mouse position.

If you are looking to use .NET we have a Selection Manager Example located on our website under 3rd Party Developers -> NET-Hook Downloads.

and in net-hook? it's possible ?

[Roger Martin from CNC Software]

I think it is possible with a NET-Hook. The NET-Hook API does support the "get_event" functionality you see on the C-Hook SDK.

In order for us to investigate further, I'll need to create a support ticket,

to do that,  we'll need you to email us with your company contact info to:  SDK[at]mastercam[dot].com
