You do know asking for pointers[0] in an X list is misleading, don't you? :) All jokes aside, I recently started a thread with a similar goal and got no answers - actually my initial idea was similar to the DMX thing also suggested in this thread. One challenge I want to tackle (and you probably don't) is to be able to have multiple pointers: one from the touchscreen of the tablet and one from the laptop. In any case, please let me know if you get anywhere regarding this idea since I haven't been able to move much forward. David E.
