Mouse operations in Ruby

Hello everybody
Please is there a very detailed course on the functioning of the mouse because until now I can not control how the mouse works and how to recover the coordinates of a selected point?
something else is there small program that lets me see how the mouse buttons work when I click on them, like displaying a message telling me that the left button is clicked when I click on it.
thank you to all of you

I’m guessing this is a developer question and not how do you use a mouse.
If it is the OP should move it to the correct category or comment here and we can do it for you.

merci pour vous tous
je parle de l’intĂ©rieur de sketchup , par exemple comment je dois faire pour que quand je clicke sur le bouton de la souris (gauche), un texte s’affiche dans me disant que j’ai clickĂ© sur le bouton gauche de la souris ? ça c’est la premiĂšre partie
la deuxiĂšme partie, comment je peux rĂ©cupĂ©rer les coordonnĂ©es 2d par rapport Ă  l"ecran et 3d par rapport Ă  l’espace sketchup d’un point d’une façon pure et simple ?
Merci d’avance à vous tous

Parlez-vous dans un script rubis? ou tout simplement en utilisant sketchup?

dans un script rubis je vais poster un exemple que je le test depuis tout à l"heure mais ça fonctionne pas
‘’‘def onLButtonDown
UI.messagebox(“hi”)
end ‘’’

TRANSLATION in a ruby script I will post an example that I have been testing for a while ago "but it doesn’t work
‘’ 'Def onLButtonDown
UI.messagebox (“hi”)
end ‘’ ’

Je ne sais pas. je modifie le titre et la catĂ©gorie de votre question pour que quelqu’un qui comprenne l’écriture d’extension le remarque. bonne chance.

merci beaucoup j’ai testĂ© sur le console ruby et ça marche super bien , je vais l’étudier ligne par ligne, par contre auriez vous un exemple concernant la rĂ©cupĂ©ration des coordonnĂ©es 2d(par rapport Ă  l’écran) et 3d d’un point quand je clique n’importe oĂč sur la fenĂȘtre sketchup
merci beaucoup

another v5 SU one

Within the test tool change onLButtonUp to 


    def onLButtonUp(flags, x, y, view)
      puts "onLButtonUp called. User clicked at [#{x},#{y}]"
    end

Within the test tool change onLButtonUp again and create an inputpoint 


    def onLButtonUp(flags, x, y, view)
      puts "onLButtonUp called. User clicked at [#{x},#{y}]"
      @ip = view.inputpoint(x,y)
    end

merci beaucoup grand dan
mais le deuxiÚme exemple ne me donne pas les coordonnées en 3d , il me donne toujours les coordonnées 2d , y a t elle une chose à modifier ?
merci

re grand dan
j’ai rĂ©ussi Ă  rĂ©cupĂ©rĂ© les coordonnĂ©es 3 d en ajoutant "point= @ip.position "
nĂ©anmoins , merci beaucoup Ă  vous tous, grĂące Ă  vous tous j’ai appris des choses
merci beaucoup

Yes, this is why I gave you the link to the Sketchup::InputPoint class, so thta you could use the #position instance method.

You are most welcome. :smiley:

Vous ĂȘtes les bienvenus.
