Mouse coordinates (0,0) at the center of the monitor screen on computer

Is it possible to have the mouse coordinates at (0,0) at the center of the screen of the laptop /monitor of the PC instead of the top left hand corner of the computer?

Hm, not entirely true.
The point is: "What does 0,0 refer to?"
Windows is using the top left corner of the primary monitor as 0,0. So my previous repliers are correct.
But when relating coordinates to specific windows, the 0,0 could be elsewhere. Typically, those relative coordinates also refer to the top left corner (0,0), but this can change.
In LV for instance, you see the relative 0,0 coordinate of the front panel by the crossing and the dot (grey) if you have the grid enabled. Initially, the dot (0,0) is located in the top left corner, but it could be moved.
On the other hand, there is no easy way to move 0,0 of the front panel to the center of your application window as it depends on the size of the window. You can do it though using property nodes (VI=>Panel=>Pane=>Origin).
hope this helps,

  • Dear all, is it normal or common to see the cloudy spot (in various size) at the center of the monitor screen when the iMAC is on longer than an hour or so? Thanks

    Dear all,
    Is it normal or common to see a cloudy spot, in various size, at the center of the monitor screen when the iMAC is on for > 1 hour or so??

    Doesn't sound normal to me. If you are under warranty I would get it checked out.

  • How do I print only the text on the monitor screen?

    I would like to be able to print only that portion of a text that is on the monitor screen. How do I do that?
    I have an Epson Workforce 325 printer, and an HP desktop computer PC

    Please see the following to print only the text portion of the web page. I am assuming you wish to print just the text & not the ads or additional irrelevant items to avoid wasting ink.

    When I have video clips on my timeline, they do not play in the monitor screen. I hear the sound track but can not see the image. To test if my new files are somehow the problem, I went back and used video files that I used successfully a year ago, and they no longer play in the monitor window. I hear the sound track, but do not see any video. Have I changed some setting that controls video playback in the monitor window?

    Thanks for the follow up.
    Missing in this equation were the version of Premiere Elements that you were using and the computer operating system on which it was running. But...
    The deed is done. But.....Until now and after you went ahead and moved to version 12, we now learn what version of Premiere Elements you were using. We still do not know the computer operating system involved.
    You just said Premiere Elements 10. Premiere Elements 10 is hit by a serious known display issue if the computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card. In this issue, the only remedy is to roll back the driver version to about May 2013. The description of the problem and how to do the roll back are described in one of the Announcements at the top of this forum. What video card/graphics card does your computer use?
    On another front, Adobe will be releasing a new version of Premiere Elements any day now. No one but Adobe knows the feature set for the new version. That type of information is announced at the moment of release of the new version.
    So the remedy to the problem that you presented in this thread could have been...
    1. Rolling back the NVIDIA GeForce driver version to about May 2013 if possible (Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, may not be possible)
    2. Move to another version of Premiere Elements (which you did)
    I offer the above for consideration so that you can review your decisions. We are pleased to learn that Premiere Elements 12/12.1 works for you.
    Please do not hesitate to ask questions and ask for clarifications, but remember that the answers are in the details.

  • I still have the problem with my Power Mac G3 Blue/white.  Turning the power on i can hear it go thru POST but nothing every shows up on the monitor screen.  Also when booting pressing the "C"  or the Shift key nothing happens.

    I don't get anything on the monitor screen.  During startup i can hear it going thru POST but never any screen image.  Any ideas?

    The "C" key will work if there is a bootable volume on a disk in the optical drive. Are you running OSX? Jaguar, Panther, Tiger? On OSX (UNIX) you can use the command "S"  (⌘-S) at start up to go to the root and do a file system check: Type; fsck -f -y  at the prompt when it appears then press Return; let the root check for problems and repair. To exit after the test type; reboot and press Return

  • Refreshing the monitor screen

    Hi all,
    I have an application built using
    CVI 5.5 where some where
    at the middle of the operation the
    program will call another program to lauch. After the called program has
    exit, my application will continue.
    My problem is that when the called program has exit, the whole monitor
    screen become white and I can't anything.
    Is there some way I can refresh the
    screen in CVI ?
    Thankz in advance.
    MK. Tan

    Hello Tan,
    The screen should not turn white when your called application exits. I would be suspicious that the called application is not terminating properly. Check to see if the OS has become unstable or locked up (move the mouse, press ALT-TAB, press Num Lock, press Ctrl-Alt-Del, and see if the system responds). I assume that you are using system() to execute this program synchronously. You could call fprintf() then fflush() directly after system() to write to a file to check if your program continues to run after the called program exits. If you restart and the file does not contain the marker, then you can be sure that the called application is not exiting cleanly. If you can give us more details on the application you are calling and the state of your syste
    m after it exits, we might be able to help you further. Also, does this behavior occur when the program is being debugged, a release executable, or both?

  • I have a new flat screen monitor;  how do I get iMovie project screen to fit the monitor screen ?

    When I want to work on my iMovie project, the work area is to wide for the monitor.  I have  toggled the monitor between wide 1/2 and original screen 2/2;  I still need to physically pull the picture right and left to see the work area not shown. 

    I don't know how to delete a question ....   When I opened iTunes it prompted me to change the resolution on the monitor...  that seemed to fix my " fit to screen issues ".  If you are reading this Thank you for your interest in my problem. 

  • Is there a tool that I can use to get web pages that fit to the monitor screen

    Is there a tool that I can use to make webpages fit the size of my monitor screen instead of having to scroll side to side to read an email?

    Hi notmarriedanymo,
    You can try using [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-use-zoom Zoom]. This will increase/decrease the size of everything on the page. You can try hitting ''CTRL and +'' a few times to try it out. ''CTRL and 0'' will return it to normal size.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • HT1338 How can I display the bookmark list on the right side, not the left, of the monitor screen?

    The display bookmark icon is on the far side of the navigation bar. When activated the list of bookmarks come up on the far left which is not convenient since I am right handed and would like to move the cursor straight down not across the screen.

    I imagine the OP means this:
    It's not movable. However command-option-B will open it if that's any help, though once opened there's no way of altering the layout of the page, except for moving the divider.

  • How can I display the bookmark list on the right side, not the left, of the monitor screen?

    The display bookmark icon is on the far side of the navigation bar. When activated the list of bookmarks come up on the far left which is not convenient since I am right handed and would like to move the cursor straight down not across the screen.

    There are two bookmarks icons. One displays a drop-down menu and the other opens the browser sidebar. Which one are you using?
    For the drop-down menu, it should open on the side where you have the icon. (Note: this icon generally appears at the right end of the Bookmarks toolbar and in past threads some people have had difficulty moving it to other toolbars.)
    For the sidebar, there might be a trick to switch it from left to right, but this also will affect others sidebars that share the same box, such as history.

    Depend on the model iMac. There are three quite different iMacs covered in this forum. Do 'About this Mac..." from the Apple menu and post what the resulting window says about "Processor."
    If that window says "Intel," your iMac is newer than those in this forum and you should consider reposting  in teh forum form newer iMacs here:

  • Mouse coordinates.

    I want to make an applet (dimensions cca 50x100).
    But I want it to display the mouse coordinates, no matter where the cursor is (over the applet or elsewhere on the desktop).
    Can you give me some ideas? What classes to use, some approaches to my problem etc.
    Advanced thanks (like this forum is).
    iulian

    I think your only way out of this would be to use JNI. On Windows you can then use thr MouseCapture functions (or a hook function) to get mouse messages wherever the mouse is, but of course that is platform specific. Otherwise, the JVM will only get mouse messages when the mouse is over the Java window(s)
