Recording Mouse Position

Hi,

I'm attempting to collect/track mouse position on a particular image on a slide. I want the position to be collected often, every 200ms or so, but NOT contingent upon a click: just continuously tracked coordinates as the participant moves the mouse cursor. I'm using the following in-line code before my slide named "Test:"

Dim thePoint As Point

Mouse.ShowCursor True

While Clock.ReadMillisec < Test.OnsetTime + Test.Duration

Mouse.GetCursorPos thePoint

Debug.Print "Mouse is at location: " & thePoint.x & " " & thePoint.y

sleep 200

Wend

The code is designed to print the coordinates in the "debug" tab, but I can't get that to work: they're not being printed anywhere. I'd prefer it in the .edat output files or a .txt file, but can't seem to get any modifications to print the position.

Can anyone tell me what I'm missing?

Thanks,

Lauren

Take a look at the drag and drop e prime sample program on the pst website. It can be modified for your purpose.

Dear Prasad Tendolkar, can you be more specific (e.g., links to the samples)?

Thanks
