How do I keep my cursor with an area

Hi,

How do I keep my cursor inside the playing area?

I was thinking of setting the mouse to bound to layout..is that possible?

I thought I used to see my mouse object in the object area(bottom right) but I don't see it anymore in my project.

I'm looking at the mouse condition and I don't see anything that would help me.

Did I miss something?

Thank You.

Does this help?

Hi Littlestain,

Is there a way for me to keep the cursor bound to layout?

Thanks.

I'm not sure what you mean..

what would be the difference between bound to layout and my example?

Hi,

For the cursor to stay within the white area.

Like we can set any object to 'bound to layout' but can we do the same for the cursor?

For example: if I have a playing field of W=200 and H=400 I wold want the cursor to be bound inside W=0 - 200 and H=300 - 400(bottom 1/3 of the playing area)

Thank You.

Yeah I guess if you don't want the mouse coordinate ever to be exactly 0 you could do it like this:

Yes this will work fine.

Thank you for helping me.

Why did you open a new topic for the bottom third?

You can use this capx for that, just change the values in the expressions..
