No, it's not that simple !
Look what I'm trying to do :
- I'm popping up a menu at mouseDown on a view.
- if the user pressed ESCAPE, the menu disappears but since that
moment, my beloved view doesn't receive
mouseMoved events anymore. So, I need to make it first responder again
only if the mouse is still inside.
- Because of that, I'm capturing keyUp, and I'm performing my first
responder mambo-jambo in there.
- this is the code, if anybody has a slightest idea, please let me
know.
(BTW, not receiving mouseMoved anymore after a context menu is dismissed
is a cocoa bug, if anybody from there reads this)
- (void)keyUp:(NSEvent *)theEvent
{
NSString * tString;
unichar tChar;
tString= [theEvent characters];
NSLog(@"Key pressed");
tChar=[tString characterAtIndex:0];
if (tChar == 27)
{
NSPoint clickPoint = [theEvent locationInWindow];
NSPoint aPoint = [self convertPoint:clickPoint fromView:nil];
NSLog(@" Escape Pressed ! The mouse is at : %f,
%f",clickPoint.x, clickPoint.y); // NOPE IT IS NOT,
// clickPoint contains the origin of my window
// main window is first respoder
[[self window] setAcceptsMouseMovedEvents: NO];
[[self window] makeFirstResponder:[self window]];
// NEVER INSIDE
if (NSPointInRect(aPoint, [self bounds]))
{
NSLog(@"Escape Pressed ! AND THE MOUSE IS INSIDE");
// my view is first respoder
[[self window] setAcceptsMouseMovedEvents: YES];
[[self window] makeFirstResponder:self];
}
// else
// NSLog(@" Escape Pressed ! AND THE MOUSE IS OUTSIDE");
}
[[self window] resetCursorRects];
[[self window] invalidateCursorRectsForView:self];
}

How can I get the position of the mouse at any time in an application ?
I need to know the position of the mouse while I am inside keyUp
of keyDown and
the event received by these methods doesn't contains a valid mouse
position.
