Scroll Mouse at any area of the screen

[SpriggsySpriggs]

Since so many people are talking about moving the mouse outside of the screen, I decided to see about scrolling the mouse wherever you want. The below code is not really mine. I found it on Stack Overflow and then edited it.

Code: C++: [Select]

1. UINT ScrollMouse(int x, int y, int scroll) //save as scroll.h
2. {
3.    INPUT input;
4.    POINT pos;
5.    SetCursorPos(x,y);
6.    pos.x = x;
7.    pos.y = y;
8.  
9.    input.type = INPUT_MOUSE;
10.    input.mi.dwFlags = MOUSEEVENTF_WHEEL;
11.    input.mi.time = NULL; //Windows will do the timestamp
12.    input.mi.mouseData = (DWORD)scroll*WHEEL_DELTA; //A positive value indicates that the wheel was rotated forward, away from the user; a negative value indicates that the wheel was rotated backward, toward the user. One wheel click is defined as WHEEL_DELTA, which is 120.
13.    input.mi.dx = pos.x;
14.    input.mi.dy = pos.y;
15.    input.mi.dwExtraInfo = GetMessageExtraInfo();
16.  
17.    return SendInput(1, &input, sizeof(INPUT));
18. }

Code: QB64: [Select]

1. Declare Library "scroll"
2.     Function ScrollMouse~& (ByVal x As Long, Byval y As Long, Byval scroll As Long)
3. End Declare
4.  
5. Print ScrollMouse(2460, 500, -3) 'I have 3 monitors so my width goes beyond regular resolutions.
