Re: x,y coordinates of text cursor in body
While this is definitely interesting and useful it's not the mouse position that we're looking for but the text cursor position. However I think this put me on the right track. So c.frame.body.widget.cursorRect() will provide something like: PyQt4.QtCore.QRect(52, 4, 3, 26) if that were assigned to variable qr1 you could get the x and y coords via qr1.x() and qr1.y() I believe the method *c.frame.body.widget.mapToGlobal()* provides what i'm looking for, the example usage would be: *c.frame.body.widget.mapToGlobal(QPoint(qr1.x(), qr1.y())* I haven't fully tested this out but the numbers I'm getting out look right. If anyone else has any comments let me know. I'll try to integrate this into a new Leo command I've been working on and keep you updated.

Re: x,y coordinates of text cursor in body
c.frame.body.widget.cursorRect() will give you the location of the cursor relative to the text body, I think relative to the top left corner. I think that: c.frame.body.widget.getContentsMargins() also needs to be factored into this, ie added to whatever you get from cursorRect() What I can't figure out is how to determine where the top left corner of the text body starts on the screen. I've poured over the members and methods for c.frame, c.frame.body, and c.frame.body.widget and I couldn't find it. Hopefully somebody more knowledgeable can weigh in.

x,y coordinates of text cursor in body
I've been playing around with trying to extract the x,y screen coordinates of the text cursor in the body but I've come up short. I found QTextCursor but it's position method does not give screen coordinates like QCursor does with its pos method. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
