Winforms: Screen Location of Caret Position
Question
How can I find the screen position of the caret for a standard Winforms TextBox?
Solution
You can do it only with native interop: GetCaretPos
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
[return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
static extern bool GetCaretPos(out Point lpPoint);
OTHER TIPS
I have been using the TextBox.GetPositionFromCharIndex function. It gives coordinates relative to the top left of the the TextBox.
