I went to the trouble of programming the mapping of the screen
coordinates to image coordinates, and it works pretty well.  I would
offer this to everybody, but...

I was not aware of the IMAQ WindGetMouse function.  I checked, and it
still exists in the same place for Vision 7, and it DOES work with the
new image display.  The Window Number output is garbage (to me), but the
X and Y coordinates match the vision display exactly.  Just put it in an
event for a mouse move on the image display.

Thanks Tim for the extra piece of info I needed to figure it out.

Hi Adam,
I think the old IMAQ WindGetMouse (on my system it's at C:\Program
Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW
6.1\vi.lib\Vision\Compatibility.llb\IMAQ WindGetMouse) is what you're
looking for. Unfortunately, I can't find the equivalent of this vi in
the vision7 world. As far as I can tell, Bruce's idea of using mouse
move event coordinates and adjusting properly is the only way to go. I'd
be interested in what you find as I may be looking for the same thing
shortly. -Tim
