get_mouse_mickeys(3alleg4) [freebsd man page]

get_mouse_mickeys(3alleg4)					  Allegro manual					get_mouse_mickeys(3alleg4)

NAME

       get_mouse_mickeys - How far the mouse has moved since the last call to this function. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       void get_mouse_mickeys(int *mickeyx, int *mickeyy);

DESCRIPTION

       Measures  how  far  the mouse has moved since the last call to this function. The values of mickeyx and mickeyy will become negative if the
       mouse is moved left or up, respectively. The mouse will continue to generate movement mickeys even when it reaches the edge of the  screen,
       so this form of input can be useful for games that require an infinite range of mouse movement.

       Note  that  the	infinite  movement may not work in windowed mode, since under some platforms the mouse would leave the window, and may not
       work at all if the hardware cursor is in use.

NAME

       enable_hardware_cursor - Enables the OS hardware cursor. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       void enable_hardware_cursor(void);

DESCRIPTION

       After  calling  this function, Allegro will let the operating system draw the mouse cursor instead of doing it itself. This is not possible
       with all graphics drivers though: you'll need to check the gfx_capabilities flags after calling show_mouse() to see if this works. On  some
       platforms,  enabling  the  hardware cursor causes get_mouse_mickeys() to return only a limited range of values, so you should not call this
       function if you need mouse mickeys.
