Tracking mouse coordinates in Qt

问题

Let's say I have a widget in main window, and want to track mouse position ONLY on the widget: it means that left-low corner of widget must be local (0, 0).

Q: How can I do this?

p.s. NON of functions below do that.

widget->mapFromGlobal(QCursor::pos()).x();
QCursor::pos()).x();
event->x();

回答1:

I am afraid, you won't be happy with your requirement 'lower left must be (0,0). In Qt coordinate systems (0,0) is upper left. If you can accept that. The following code...

setMouseTracking(true); // E.g. set in your constructor of your widget.

// Implement in your widget
void MainWindow::mouseMoveEvent(QMouseEvent *event){
    qDebug() << event->pos();
}

...will give you the coordinates of your mouse pointer in your widget.

If all you want to do is to report position of the mouse in coordinates as if the widget's lower-left corner was (0,0) and Y was ascending when going up, then the code below does it. I think the reason for wanting such code is misguided, though, since coordinates of everything else within said widget don't work this way. So why would you want it, I can't fathom, but here you go.

#include <QtWidgets>

class Window : public QLabel {
public:
    Window() {
        setMouseTracking(true);
        setMinimumSize(100, 100);
    }
    void mouseMoveEvent(QMouseEvent *ev) override {
        // vvv That's where the magic happens
        QTransform t;
        t.scale(1, -1);
        t.translate(0, -height()+1);
        QPoint pos = ev->pos() * t;
        // ^^^
        setText(QStringLiteral("%1, %2").arg(pos.x()).arg(pos.y()));
    }
};

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    Window w;
    w.show();
    return a.exec();
}
