I prefer the method Bill Marriott suggested:
set a global (or a script local) on a mouseDown event and then track
the coordinates via mouseMove.
You can theoretically track the location of the mouse (pointer)
during mouseMove without using a local or global in a mouseDown
handler, but then you have to use "the mouse is down" to test within
the mouseMove handler, and that can be problematic as it tends to
"eat" the mouseUp message and is generally inefficient, in my
experience.

Jerry figured it out a while ago -- Galaxy always shows the object
name and path of the object it is hovering above. I think mousemove
may be part of it.
from the docs: "Sent periodically while the mouse button is being
held down."
this gets close to what you want I think.
ON mouseMove
put the target
END mouseMove
It still seems odd that I can't get the data I need without having
to do this.
Cheers,
Sarah
