Sorry...

HIPoints in general are relative to 0,0 in the upper left.
NSPoints (and CGPoints) are relative to 0,0 in the lower left.

so an HIPoint at x,y coordinates is equivalent to an NSPoint at x,displaysheight - y

The question is an easy way of figuring out exactly how high the display height is, especially in the case of multiple monitors.

Currently I'm looping through the displays, but there's got to be a better way of doing it.

Ah... that could be problematic. Particularly since there may be more than one display that contains a given point.


I'd start with CGGetDisplaysWithPoint and CGDisplayBounds.
