Hi,

I am trying to get the mouse x,y coordinates on a page using:

$(document).ready(onReady)

function onReady()
{
$(document).mousemove(function (e)
{
window.mouseXPos = e.pageX;
window.mouseYPos = e.pageY;
});
}

In order to see the coordinates I am using the following:
$(document).mousemove(mouseMove);

function mouseMove()
{
$("#lbMessage").text(window.mouseXPos.toString() + "x" + window.mouseYPos.toString());
}

In this page I am using a calendar control.
I noticed that when the mouse enters calendar cells, the mousemove event stops firing.

Do i need to make some kind of configuration of the calendar control?

Thank you

Hi,

The Calender control captures mouse move event and cancels it. Unfortunately I do not believe there is any setting that you can turn that off.

Thanks!

Thank you for your reply.
I managed to work around this limitation anyway by using DayRender event and passing some additional parameters.

Best regards.

It seems that the workaround found is not as good :D.
I was hoping to be able to extend Calendar's functionality using jQuery drag'n'drop plugins.
I was planing to make some cells draggable and others dropable.

Is there any posibility to change the calendar's default behaviour of canceling the mousemove event?

Such a solution will really really be useful.

Thank you.

Hi,

No. I do not believe we have any plan to change the Calendar for this. Allowing the mouse click event to bubble up to the document would trigger a click event on the document, which would close all popup windows, including the DatePicker drop down window. So that will completely break the DatePicker control.

Thanks!
