Get mouse position

timoraes

Is there a way to get mouse coordinates like the image below, without referencing resolution?

xyz

timoraes What's wrong with referencing resolution?

synthnostate

timoraes You want "OpenGL style" mouse coordinates? Just divide by window/viewport size etc, do the math. You might think this should be a Godot builtin but it's not needed by most games or internally. What you see in InputEventMouse is what you get.

xyz Want to set object local position using this coordinates. I think this way is less complicated

xyz

timoraes What is "object local positioning"? It's also not clear from your drawing what those 1s represent? Window/screen border?

timoraes

xyz Position relative to parent...the number represent the x and y coordinates of the position

samuraidan

get_viewport().get_mouse_position() ?

timoraes

synthnostate OK..thanks

timoraes It gave an impression that you wanted normalized coordinates in range (0-1). If you just want coordinates relative to parent, you can call CanvasItem::get_local_mouse_position()
