Display raw mouse movement / coordinates

Closed this issue · 5 comments

I was looking for a tool to display the raw mouse coordinates in order to be able to calculate the actual (hardware) mouse DPI. Unfortunately there does not seem to be a tool available for this or not working (https://www.passmark.com/forum/other-software/3862-test-your-mouse-polling-rate-and-dpi).

Windows seems to offer an API to get those values: https://docs.microsoft.com/de-de/windows/desktop/DxTechArts/taking-advantage-of-high-dpi-mouse-movement#wm_input

This has the

advantage to using WM_INPUT is that your game receives raw data from the mouse at the lowest level possible.

Thanks for your suggestion, I'll look into this and see what I can do. Not sure how well processing raw input from C#/.NET works.
I will leave this open as a feature request. If you want to contribute something yourself, you're very welcome to open a PR.

Thanks. Unfortunately I don't have time currently and am also not familiar with the language used for this tool, so probably I won't create a PR for this.

Has this been implemented or wontfix?

@claell Sorry, this has not been implemented.

Alright, thanks for the update!
