mou to calculated coordinates - why doesn't work

[stupomer]

I often use either GetWinXY or DpiGetWindowRect to help me move the mouse cursor to the center of a window.
For some reason, I have to do it in two steps:

Code:

Copy      Help

int w=win("Untitled - Notepad" "Notepad")
int x y cx cy x_mid y_mid
GetWinXY(w x y cx cy)
int x_mid(x+(cx*0.5)) y_mid(y+(cy*0.5))
mou x_mid y_mid

or

Code:

Copy      Help

RECT r
DpiGetWindowRect w &r
x_mid = r.left+(0.5*(r.right-r.left))
y_mid = r.top+(0.5*(r.bottom-r.top))
mou x_mid y_mid

but these do not work:

Code:

Copy      Help

mou x+(cx*0.5) y+(cy*0.5)
mou r.left+(0.5*(r.right-r.left)) r.top+(0.5*(r.bottom-r.top))

just wondering why. Not a big deal but I want to make sure I understand if this is my misunderstanding of QM's syntax for functions/commands.

Thanks as always,

Does not work because the expression is of type double, because contains values of type double. QM mouse commands interpret it as part of window or screen.

Examples:
mou 100 100 ;;100 100 pixels
mou 0.5 0.5 ;;screen center
mou 100 0.5 ;;100 pixels horizontally, center vertically

thanks! I am mad that I didn't figure this out myself! :oops:
