Hello friends,

Is there a way to display the mouse x,y desktop coordinates in u++? Not the mouse position within the window but the mouse position of where it is on the users desktop? (Im using windows 10)

Thank you for any help!

	TimeCallback cb;
	cb.Set(-20, [&] { lbl = AsString(GetMousePos()); });
