AX 7 get Cursor position

Posted on by Community Member

Hi All,

I just did code upgrade from AX2012 to AX and found a problem in cursor position.

In ax 2012, the code blow give me the correct position of the cursor, but after upgrade code to AX 7 the same code always return [0, 0]. I changed the method to  getCursorPos(); but they are just the same.

[startPos, endPos] = textcontrol.getSelection(); 

Do I miss sth? Thank you!

    Do you mean that you want web browsers to send information about every mouse movement to Dynamics AX application server in Azure?

    Aha, you mean the text cursor, not mouse cursor.
    Unfortunately all I can say it's that it doesn't seem to work for me either. I assume that it isn't supported by the new UI framework, that the information isn't passed from the browser to AX.
    I suggest you log it on Connect; you might learn more there.
