怎样限制鼠标移动

本文介绍如何限制鼠标在窗口的指定范围内移动。这个技术在需要防止用户鼠标在指定区域内活动时非常
有用。例如在一个射击游戏中，需要限制鼠标在射击区内移动。
操作步骤
1、建立一个新工程项目，缺省建立窗体FORM1
2、添加一个新模体
3、粘贴下面代码到新模体

Option ExplicitDeclare Function ClipCursor Lib "user32" (lpRect As Any) As Long
Declare Function ClipCursorClear Lib "user32" Alias "ClipCursor" (ByVal lpRect As Long) As Long
Declare Function ClientToScreen Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long, lpPoint As POINTAPI) As Long
Type RECT
Left As Long
Top As Long
Right As Long
Bottom As Long
End Type
Type POINTAPI
X As Long
Y As Long
End Type
Public RetValue As Long
Public ClipMode As Boolean


Public Sub SetCursor(ClipObject As Object, Setting As Boolean)
' used to clip the cursor into the viewport and
' turn off the default windows cursor


Dim CurrentPoint As POINTAPI
Dim ClipRect As RECT


If Setting = False Then
' set clip state back to normal
RetValue = ClipCursorClear(0)
Exit Sub
End If


' set current position
With CurrentPoint
.X = 0
.Y = 0
End With
' find position on the screen (not the window)
RetValue = ClientToScreen(ClipObject.hwnd, CurrentPoint)
' designate clip area
With ClipRect
.Top = CurrentPoint.Y
.Left = CurrentPoint.X
.Right = .Left + ClipObject.ScaleWidth
.Bottom = .Top + ClipObject.ScaleHeight
End With ' clip it
RetValue = ClipCursor(ClipRect)


End Sub


4、添加一个图片框控件（PICTURE1）到窗体（FORM1）
5、设置PICTURE1的尺寸和FORM1的一样大
6、在PICTURE1的CLICK事件中添加以下代码：


Private Sub Picture1_Click()
ClipMode = Not ClipMode
SetCursor Picture1, ClipMode
End Sub


7、保存工程项目
8、运行程序。在图片框单击鼠标，鼠标将被包含在图片框控件的区域内。要释放限制状态只需再次单击鼠标。
注意：如果释放限制状态失败，鼠标将被永久限制，只能用重新启动机器来解决。
另一个限制鼠标活动范围的方法是关闭鼠标，用其他图象代替光标，例如手枪。
