Re: [Nvda-dev] move mouse pointer according to The cursor position while using virtual buffer

[Peter V. <pe...@da...>]

Hello,
I think when you are browsing a document in a virtual buffer object 
navigator moves with the virtual buffer. So if you just wan to make sure 
mouse pointer points to the object being currently browsed in the 
virtual buffer you can execute move mouse to navigator object script and 
you are done.
I am always working this way when I do need to click somewhere and it 
works fine. E.G. for a test you might like to emulate a right click 
instead of using applications key to inwoke a context menu.
In the IAccessible2 edit fields, in richedit controls, in plain edit 
controls and even in scintilla this command is accurate enough to set 
the pointer to the character where the review cursor is positioned. Of 
course the bit where you want to move the mouse pointer must be 
currently visible on the screen. This is the check we do currently miss.

Yes, i could use NVDA navigation keys for moving between various objects, i could may be use move object navigator to The mouse, but this is not so easy and reliable like using virtual buffer.
