Every once in a while, depending on the program window, the mouse position does not correspond to the given coordinates. Is there a way to nuke that problem once and for all programs? Thanks. |

You will probably need to change your Windows Display Settings to a compatible size

we are going to need more info if you want any real help. What are you doing to move the mouse and when does it not work?

Hey Mark! I think Lunis is mostly correct. But that kind of dumps on people who need larger print systemwide. I have corrected the problem from time to time using each specific program's Windows Compatibility > DPI Settings. It's a hassle to do that every time, but the problem comes up rarely.
My monitor is extremely high resolution. It could probably be set at a lower resolution to get larger fonts and stuff. That might allow using only 100% scaling, to be compatible with everything. Maybe someday. |

To be more specific. I'm just recording the window position with my C++ systemwide macro recorder and then on playback using... SetMousePosition(0,x,y) Apparently simply adjusting a program's settings works... Properties > Compatibility > Change high DPI settings > High DPI scaling override > Override high DPI scaling behavior > Application I'm probably being greedy to ask for an easier solution. Thanks.

you could probably write a query the dpi for the active application and make adjustments accordingly. But I'm not sure that falls under your "easier solution" descriptor.

you can use SetMousePosition (https://www.nuance.com/products/help/dragon/dragon-for-pc/scriptref/Content/scrptref/setmouseposition.htm) relative to the top left corner of the active window; if you keep the DPI of the application constant, that might work
alternatively, I wrote an extension that gets the size of the current window and uses percentages of that to do the clicking; should work no matter the resolution as long as the position doesn't need to be too high |
