Re: [udig-devel] trap coordinates of mouse movement

[Andrea Antonello <andrea.antonello@xxxxxxxxx>]

Finally I guess I'm able to close this thread :)

The way seems to be:
- register to the map ViewPortPane
IMap map = ApplicationGIS.getActiveMap();

if (map != null) {
((ViewportPane)
map.getRenderManager().getMapDisplay()).addMouseMotionListener(panel);
}

- implement the MapMouseMotionListener

- use the coordinates
public void mouseMoved( MapMouseEvent event ) {
IMap map = ApplicationGIS.getActiveMap();

if (map != null) {
            Coordinate coord =
map.getViewportModel().pixelToWorld(event.x, event.y);

etc. etc.


Ciao
Andrea
