Does Warp Mouse not work under XP?

SDL Development

Hi,
I think SDL_WarpMouseInWindow(…) has a problem under WinXP when the
mouse is not visible.
The call of SDL_WarpMouseInWindow(…) has no effect. Under Win7
everything works great (visible and invisible). In older versions of
SDL2 I’m pretty sure it works under XP, too.

Best regards,
Daniel

Many people use and will use WinXP. I thinks thats not the way SDL
should handle this problem.Am 26.03.2014 20:35, schrieb Jesse Palser:

It’s going to die soon.

Daniel, I also found that SDL_WarpMouseInWindow() is not working fine if your window is scaled.
If you use scaling in your app, please, test and let me know.
Last time I tried was version 2.0.1 .
Thanks

If you scale you have to scale the coordinates yourself, just an f.y.iOn Mar 26, 2014 3:48 PM, “alabouza” wrote:

Yes I have a resizeable window. In the old version of my program, the
window was not resizeable, so that could be the problem. So it’s a bug.
To be sure I will test it tommorow.Am 26.03.2014 21:48, schrieb alabouza:
