My cursor.position function works, but when the cursor is focused in a window and hidden ( for example in a game when the cursor hides itself ) it doesn't move...
Any solution?
My code:
Cursor.Position = new Point(Cursor.Position.X + Xvariable, Cursor.Position.Y + Yvariable);
You can test this one
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern void mouse_event(int dwFlags, int dx, int dy, int dwData, int dwExtraInfo);
private const int MOUSEEVENTF_MOVE = 0x0001;
public static void Move(int xDelta, int yDelta)
{
mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_MOVE, xDelta, yDelta, 0, 0);
}
Usage Move(830, 160);

I know there are already a million threads about this, but I've spent countless hours trying to find a solution and i'm hoping I can find it here instead.
My goal is to create a 'Ghost mouse', meaning that I want to be able to simulate mouse clicks on a certain position in a minimized window, without moving my own cursor our mouse. I want to be able to browse the internet and click on other stuff, while the program does its own thing. This is a feature that many game bots have, but my intention is not to create a bot, but only to experience with.
So far i've managed to simulate mouse clicks, but with my actual mouse.
[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
public static extern void mouse_event(int dwFlags, int dx, int dy, int cButtons, int dwExtraInfo);
private const int MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN = 0x02;
private const int MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP = 0x04;
public static void LeftClick()
{
int X = Cursor.Position.X;
int Y = Cursor.Position.Y;
mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN | MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, X, Y, 0, 0);
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);
Point pt = new Point(1259, 560);
Cursor.Position = pt;
LeftClick();
}
As far as I know, calling mouse_event will not click in minimized windows.
You have to use SendMessage WinApi for this.
First, acquire a handle for the process, either using OpenProcess or Process.GetProcessesByName(processName).First().MainWindowHandle, then you may use the following code:
[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto)]
public static extern IntPtr SendMessage(IntPtr hWnd, UInt32 Msg, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam);
public const uint WM_LBUTTONDOWN = 0x0201;
public const uint WM_LBUTTONUP = 0x0202;
public static IntPtr makeLParam(int x, int y)
{
return (IntPtr)((y << 16) | x);
}
public static void sendMouseClick(IntPtr handle, int x, int y)
{
SendMessage(handle, WM_LBUTTONDOWN, (IntPtr)1, makeLParam(x, y));
SendMessage(handle, WM_LBUTTONUP, (IntPtr)1, makeLParam(x, y));
}
Please note that this code is a bit old and might not still work. Also, keep in mind the game protections prevents acquiring handles for the game process. In addition, some games might query the mouse position from the windows rather than using the ones provided with SendMessage
I'm trying to figure out how this code works but I just can not figure out what makes it click through.
Yes, this code is not mine since i'm trying to learn/understand it.
Assume I want the tranparancy but not the click through what needs to be changed and why?
I have been over the Windows styles pages over and over and still can not get my head around the click through part.

var margins = new MARGINS() { cxLeftWidth = -1 };
var hwnd = GetActiveWindow();
SetWindowLong(hwnd, GWL_STYLE, WS_POPUP | WS_VISIBLE);
// Transparent windows with click through
SetWindowLong(hwnd, -20, 524288 | 32);//GWL_EXSTYLE=-20; WS_EX_LAYERED=524288=&h80000, WS_EX_TRANSPARENT=32=0x00000020L
SetLayeredWindowAttributes(hwnd, 0, 255, 2);// Transparency=51=20%, LWA_ALPHA=2
SetWindowPos(hwnd, HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, fWidth, fHeight, 32 | 64); //SWP_FRAMECHANGED = 0x0020 (32); //SWP_SHOWWINDOW = 0x0040 (64)
DwmExtendFrameIntoClientArea(hwnd, ref margins);
#endif
}
void OnRenderImage(RenderTexture from, RenderTexture to)
{
Graphics.Blit(from, to, m_Material);
}
}
This function:
SetWindowLong(hwnd, -20, 524288 | 32);
does the trick. Windows implements the rule that Mircosoft made which is that a window that is transparent to the user must be transparent to the mouse.
With the transparency bit set WS_EX_TRANSPARENT the window becomes transparent to mouse too and click passes to the painted layer behind the transparent window.
You need not understand but make use of this 'OS feature' which was probably implemented to cover for something else.

I'm trying to hold my mousedown and up using code for a remote desktop sort of deal. I managed to do single and double click using this:
[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
public static extern void mouse_event(uint dwFlags, uint dx, uint dy, uint cButtons, uint dwExtraInfo);
private const int MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN = 0x02;
private const int MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP = 0x04;
private const int MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTDOWN = 0x08;
private const int MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTUP = 0x10;
uint ClickX = Convert.ToUInt32(Cursor.Position.X);
uint ClickY = Convert.ToUInt32(Cursor.Position.Y);
mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN | MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, ClickX, ClickY, 0, 0);
and then double click is just 2 clicks. I found this MSDN on it but this looks like the only mousedown there is but this one is just to click and not hold I'm pretty sure.
at the last 3 Days I found a lot of code for simulating mouse clicks to other windows. but none of them has worked.
I have the window handle hwnd and the X/Y position (pixel) where the click has to be.
The X/Y position is the position inside the window.
The best code I've found is this:
public void click(IntPtr hWnd, int x, int y)
{
RECT rec = new RECT();
GetWindowRect(hWnd, ref rec);
int newx = x - rec.Left;
int newy = y - rec.Top;
SendMessage(hWnd, WM_LBUTTONDOWN, 1, ((newy << 0x10) | newx));
SendMessage(hWnd, WM_LBUTTONUP, 0, ((newy << 0x10) | newx));
}
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public struct RECT
{
public int Left;
public int Top;
public int Right;
public int Bottom;
}
[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto)]
public static extern int SendMessage(IntPtr A_0, int A_1, int A_2, int A_3);
[DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
[return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
public static extern bool GetWindowRect(IntPtr hWnd, ref RECT lpRect);
But it does not work 100% correctly.
It simulates a mouseclick at the correct window, but at the position of my real cursor.
And after this click my mouse jumps to a random position on the screen.
I hope someone has a working code and a small description how it works.
Thanks
Use this code to simulate the left mouse click in a certain position
//This is a replacement for Cursor.Position in WinForms
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern bool SetCursorPos(int x, int y);
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("user32.dll")]
public static extern void mouse_event(int dwFlags, int dx, int dy, int cButtons, int dwExtraInfo);
public const int MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN = 0x02;
public const int MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP = 0x04;
//This simulates a left mouse click
public static void LeftMouseClick(int xpos, int ypos)
{
SetCursorPos(xpos, ypos);
mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN, xpos, ypos, 0, 0);
mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, xpos, ypos, 0, 0);
}
Here is my code for a ClickMouse() function:
[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
public static extern void mouse_event(long dwFlags, long dx, long dy, long cButtons, long dwExtraInfo);
private const long MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN = 0x02;
private const long MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP = 0x04;
private const long MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTDOWN = 0x08;
private const long MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTUP = 0x10;
private void ClickMouse()
{
long X = Cursor.Position.X;
long Y = Cursor.Position.Y;
mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN | MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, X, Y, 0, 0);
}
For some reason, when my program comes to this code, it throws this error message:
PInvokeStackImbalance was detected Message: A call to PInvoke function
'WindowsFormsApplication1!WindowsFormsApplication1.Form1::mouse_event'
has unbalanced the stack. This is likely because the managed PInvoke
signature does not match the unmanaged target signature. Check that
the calling convention and parameters of the PInvoke signature match
the target unmanaged signature.
Please help?
Looks like your DllImport declaration is wrong. In particular the use of Int64 (longs), instead of UInt32.
Here's some detail from the PInvoke reference:
http://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/user32.mouse_event
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern void mouse_event(uint dwFlags, uint dx, uint dy,
uint dwData,UIntPtr dwExtraInfo);
I found this declaration
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern void mouse_event(uint dwFlags,
uint dx,
uint dy,
uint dwData,
IntPtr dwExtraInfo);
I was using RealGetWindowClass using the following format.
[DllImport("User32", CallingConvention=CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
public static extern int RealGetWindowClass(IntPtr hwnd, StringBuilder pszType, int cchType);
and i was geting the 'PInvokeStackImbalance' exception/error. But when i changed the CallingConvention to
[DllImport("User32", CallingConvention=CallingConvention.StdCall)]
the error went away. I am using VS2010 on a 64 bit machine.
To fix PInvokeStackImbalance error:
Press: CTRL + ALT + E
Under "Managed Debugging Assistants" uncheck PInvokeStackImbalance
I changed "Cdecl" to "StdCall" but it didn't work.
As Scott Weinstein mentioned we should use int type.
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern void mouse_event(int dwFlags, int dx, int dy, int dwData, int dwExtraInfo);
[Flags]
public enum MouseEventFlags
{
LEFTDOWN = 0x00000002,
LEFTUP = 0x00000004,
MIDDLEDOWN = 0x00000020,
MIDDLEUP = 0x00000040,
MOVE = 0x00000001,
ABSOLUTE = 0x00008000,
RIGHTDOWN = 0x00000008,
RIGHTUP = 0x00000010
}
public static void LeftClick(int x, int y)
{
Cursor.Position = new System.Drawing.Point(x, y);
mouse_event((int)(MouseEventFlags.LEFTDOWN), 0, 0, 0, 0);
mouse_event((int)(MouseEventFlags.LEFTUP), 0, 0, 0, 0);
}
