Hi there, I'm new to the list, so this may have been answered before.
I've got a PyGame/PyOpenGL app that I'm working on which I can run under
MSWindows or Mac OSX and in windowed or fullscreen mode. I notice that
when I run in a window on my Mac, the value returned by
pygame.mouse.get_pos() is relative to the lower left corner of the screen,
but if I run fullscreen on the Mac, fullscreen on by Windows PC, or in a
window on the Windows PC, the value is relative the the upper left corner
(agreeing with the docs at
http://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/mouse.html#pygame.mouse.get_pos ).
Is this a known issue?
Attached is a short test script that displays the strange behavior.
