Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew how one could track the location of the mouser in a View. I have a subclass of General/NSOpenGLView and wish to get the location of the mouse whenever the mouse movers around it(as in many drawing programs). Can anyone suggest some pointers? I’ve seen trackingrectangles but i don’t thats helping me. Thanks sapsi —-

• mouseDown:
• mouseDragged:
• mouseUp:

See the Sketch example application on your hard drive.

Check out the addition of General/NSTrackingArea in 10.5 —- Use setAcceptsMouseMovedEvents:YES on window’s openGLView. If openGLView is first responder, then it receives mouseMoved events.
