Smart GWT Technical Q&A

Hi,

Is there any way to get mouse x-y coordinates when a form item clicked?

Thanks in advance.

try adding a mousemovehandler (or mouseclickhandler) into the form container. Then retrieve position through getX() and getY()

.addFormItemClickHandler(new FormItemClickHandler()
{
      @Override
      public void onFormItemClick(FormItemIconClickEvent event)
      {
        int xPosition = event.getItem().getIconPageRect(event.getIcon()).getLeft(); //to get right position add .getWidth() and be sure you've called setWidth on the FormItemIcon when you created it.
        int yPosition = event.getItem().getIconPageRect(event.getIcon()).getTop(); //to get bottom position add .getHeight() - same goes for setHeight on the FormItemIcon.
      }
});
