X/Y Coordinates of Click on an Image in a Windows Forms Application (.net)

Question

Is there a way to tell what x/y coordinates were clicked in a FORMS application?

Answer 1

Take a look at the MouseEventArgs class. Specifically the GetPosition method. The example on MSDN is using onMouseMove, but you should be able to do the same with onMouseClick. Or just use the MouseClick event of the form.

E.g. using the MouseClick event:

On your form:

this.MouseClick += new MouseEventHandler(myForm_MouseClick);

void myForm_MouseClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
    int myX = e.X;
    int myY = e.Y;
}

Answer 2

The MouseDown, MouseUp and MouseClick events all return the X and Y coordinates of the action.

Answer 3

Look at System.Windows.Forms.Control.MousePosition (static property)
