Thread-topic: Getting text caret location in screen coordinate
Dear List,
Does anybody here know how to get text caret location (x, y) in screen coordinate?
I'm trying to make a small window that is able to dynamically follow the text caret (the little "I" shaped cursor) while typing. In most cases, the text caret is owned by other application. Therefore, I'm looking for a solution which is able to tell where (x, y) is the text caret system wide. After spending hours on searching, it seems to me that there is no straight-forward way to do it (like locating the mouse cursor by using GetGlobalMouse() or [NSEvent mouseLocation]). Any suggestion or point to right docs will be highly appreciated.
Many thanks
