Mouse Point Viewer : View the relative and screen coordinates of the mouse pointer at all times, and learn each window's process ID and handle, with this small, open-source utility
Mouse Point Viewer is a small, open-source application that displays the current coordinates of the mouse pointer, both within the selected window and on the entire display. Additionally, it can show you each window’s process ID, handle and caption.
Nothing to install – just download the program and run it
This is clearly a very simple application, and the good news is that it is remarkably easy to deploy. Once you have downloaded the program, you can launch it instantly from any location, which means you can use it on any PC without leaving anything behind.The application stores no data locally, but this also means your configurations are not saved. Thankfully, though, there are only two settings available, so this shouldn’t be an issue.
View the mouse cursor’s location at all times
It isn’t too difficult to figure out what this application does – once launched, the mouse pointer’s coordinates are displayed in the main window, and this information is updated at a user-defined interval.However, the utility displays other useful info as well, namely the selected window’s process ID, handle and caption. If you wish, you can also have the application ignore child windows.You will notice that two sets of coordinates are displayed. The relative coordinates are only in relation to the highlighted window, while the screen coordinates, as you can probably guess, are in relation to the entire screen.
Very simple utility for users who need to track the mouse pointer’s location
All in all, Mouse Point Viewer is a lightweight program that shows you the coordinates of the mouse pointer on the screen and within the current window at all times. It is straightforward, and it does not even need to be installed before use.If, for some reason, you need to keep track of the mouse pointer’s coordinates, this program can certainly get the job done.
