Hello Jean-Marc, > You have to check that you are in the correct paragraph. pos is the > position in the paragraph.

I tested what you have given and that helped me to understand more. Today I did more testing and realized that cur.pos() is not related with pixels and this approach cannot be used as a generic solution. Problems: *I checked the cur.pos() values inside a tabular inset and it always remains at 0. *Also the position given in the screen, by a particular cur.pos() varies according to the selected font size. Am I correct? *As cur.pos() is just a increment that shows how far the cursor is from the left most point of an inset; but not from the edge of the screen. Is there any good attribute that we can use to compare; which can imply an absolute position in the screen (may be in pixels)? Thank you Hashini
