As Klaus said, screenMouseLoc is what you need. In my case, I'd like to know how not only how to move the mouse, but to drag an object via script as well. Obviously one can set the loc of the object, but is there way to trick LiveCode into thinking the mouse is down so that the standard actions of dragging and resizing can be accomplished as well without having to do those actions by separate script?
