The SDL forums have moved to discourse.libsdl.org.
This is just a read-only archive of the previous forums, to keep old links working.

SDL_GetMouseState and SDL_MouseButtonEvent have a different coordinate system for the mouse position. When my logical size matches the window size, both work fine, but when my logical size is smaller then my window size, then the event gives me coordinates in logical size coordinates and SDL_GetMouseState gives me unscaled window coordinates.

sorry if I repost here to just bring this topic to the top again. But I think this is really a major bug that can be fixed easily. So pleas any response. And sorry for the unprintable not equals sign in the title, didn't know that this board replaces it with something that is displayed wrongly everywhere.

You could work around it by using event handlers, as the renderers fixes the mouse events according to its logical size.


I don't know how should we go because getting the true mouse coordinates can be useful...? Maybe through another function, say, SDL_GetAbsoluteMouseState(), to make it clear.
