Re: [pygame] Problem with mouse going back to the center of the screen

[Brian Fisher <brian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The only time I know of where that maybe is supposed to happen, is when the mouse is both grabbed by the window, and invisible. SDL takes that to mean you want "virtual input" mode, where the mouse is moved back to the center so you can keep getting relative mouse movement infinitely in all directions, so it can behave like a trackball. This is documented here:
http://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/mouse.html

If this is your case. and relative mouse movement is fine, try using the mouse event's .rel member instead of it's .pos member, or using pygame.mouse.get_rel instead of .get_pos

if this is your case, but virtual input is not desireable, reconsider whether pygame.event.set_grab(true) and pygame.mouse.set_visible(false) are actually functions you want to call.

if this is not your case, it's a bug, and a minimal sample to reproduce would be appreciated.

Hi!

I've got a problem with the mouse: it's going back to the center of
the screen!
I don't know where it could come from because it does this only in
full screen.
It's exactly the same problem with the game Enigma.

It seems there's a problem either with SDL or with my computer. But if
it's with my computer why only in full screen?
Did you have any trouble like that?
Thanks a lot!
