I need to be able to measure the travel of the mouse over a distance greater than the few inches currently allowed. Using the "Very Slow" Mouse Tracking Speed, I can only move the mouse about 4" (vertically) before the cursor stops against the top of the screen. I need to be able to move the mouse about 12". I don't care about the cursor, I just need to be able to read the distance moved. I am currently using getmouse(), and its value stops when the cursor does. Perhaps if I could reset the values that getmouse reads, so that the machine thinks it hasn't gone as far as it has? I'm relativly to the Mac game. I'm using Lightspeed Pascal if that helps. I'd appreciate any help, of course. -Frank I can be reached at the above address, or engn8dn@bostonu on BITNET.
