Hi

I have been using the mouse to select sprites and position them in world coordinates after using SetViewOffset() by using
mouse.screenx=getpointerx()
mouse.Screeny=getpointery()
mouse.worldx=GetViewOffsetX() + mouse.screenx
mouse.worldy=GetViewOffsetY() + mouse.Screeny

This has worked well, but I was experimenting with the SetViewZoom function and this obviously alters my world mouse coordinates.

Is there a way to get the mouse world coordinates after zooming in or out?

Many thanks

Scotty

Try:

ScreenToWorldX(getpointerx())
and
ScreenToWorldY(getpointery())
