C# how to get mouseover pos on a picture

[mercenary01]

How do I do a mouse over on a GIF picture? I want to get X and Y position on the gif I display over the form. Currently I can only see the mouseover pos on the form surface only not on the picture how do I do the opposite? Thanks Samuel

Hello, Is this picture in a pictureBox? If yes, you would have to handle MouseMove there! All the best, Martin

i think u should display gif image in some container like picture box and then u can get the coordinates of picture displayed.

Hello,

this.pictureBox1.MouseMove += new System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventHandler(this.pictureBox1_MouseMove);
private void pictureBox1_MouseMove(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e)
{
string actmouseposition= "X: " + e.X + "; Y: " + e.Y;
}

Hope it helps! All the best, Martin
