Cursor.Clip Property (System.Windows.Forms)
C#
public static Rectangle Clip { get; set; }
Visual C++
public: static property Rectangle Clip { Rectangle get (); void set (Rectangle value); }
JScript
public static function get Clip () : Rectangle public static function set Clip (value : Rectangle)
Property Value Type: System.Drawing.Rectangle The Rectangle that represents the clipping rectangle for the Cursor, in screen coordinates.
Remarks
A clipped cursor is allowed to move only within its clipping rectangle. Generally, the system allows this only if the mouse is currently captured. If the cursor is not currently clipped, the resulting rectangle contains the dimensions of the entire screen.
Examples
The following code example creates a cursor from the Current cursor's Handle, changes its position and clipping rectangle. The result is the cursor will move up and to the left 50 pixels from where it is when the code is executed. Additionally, the cursor's clipping rectangle is changed to the bounds of the form (by default it is the user's whole screen). This example requires that you have a Form and a Button to call this code when it is clicked. Visual Basic Copy Code
Private Sub MoveCursor() ' Set the Current cursor, move the cursor's Position, ' and set its clipping rectangle to the form. Me.Cursor = New Cursor(Cursor.Current.Handle) Cursor.Position = New Point(Cursor.Position.X - 50, Cursor.Position.Y - 50) Cursor.Clip = New Rectangle(Me.Location, Me.Size) End Sub
C#
Copy Code
private void MoveCursor() {
