Could this work? Here is a very simple method: 1- Create a small field named "cursorpos" 2- Create an opaque rectangle graphic and put this script in the graphic: on mousemove x,y set the layer of fld cursorpos to the layer of me + 1 put x,y into fld cursorpos set the topleft of fld cursorpos to x+20,y end mousemove on mouseleave hide fld cursorpos end mouseleave on mouseenter show fld cursorpos end mouseenter Use contrasting colors for the background of the graphic and the small field.
