Hello,
I would like to get cursor/mouse-pointer image for an application window
in Linux.
I have studied several libraries that support Python, but haven't found
a suitable function to read Cursor or Pointer image.
PyGTK : http://www.pygtk.org/docs/pygtk/index.html No success.
Wnck python library:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/libwnck/stable/index.html No success.
Xlib Python: http://python-xlib.sourceforge.net/doc/html/index.html Did
not find it. Can this be right?
I've done it in c-code earlier and it works well.
The c-code is here:
http://code.google.com/p/gscreendump/source/browse/trunk/src/sd_xutils.c
GdkPixbuf *get_cursor_pixbuf(Display *display, GdkWindow *gdk_win, gint
*cursor_x,
gint *cursor_y, gint *offset_x , gint *offset_y/*x-y
hot spot */)
{
GdkWindow *gdk_root = gdk_get_default_root_window();
/* Cursor image */
GdkPixbuf *cursor_pixbuf = NULL;
/* Check if the XFIXES extension is present in the Xorg. */
int event, error;
if (XFixesQueryExtension(display, &event, &error))
{
XFixesCursorImage *cur = XFixesGetCursorImage(display);
*cursor_x = cur->x;
*cursor_y = cur->x;
*offset_x = cur->xhot;
*offset_y = cur->yhot;
/* Convert root co-ordinate (x,y) to child window
co-ordinates */
Window child_w;
XTranslateCoordinates(display,
GDK_WINDOW_XWINDOW(gdk_root), GDK_WINDOW_XWINDOW(gdk_win), cur->x,
cur->y, cursor_x, cursor_y, &child_w);
--------
I would like to use a Python library on Linux.
Can you help?
My system is: Ubuntu 9.04 64bit.
