love.mouse.getRelativeMode Available since LÖVE 0.9.2 This function is not supported in earlier versions. Gets whether relative mode is enabled for the mouse. If relative mode is enabled, the cursor is hidden and doesn't move when the mouse does, but relative mouse motion events are still generated via love.mousemoved. This lets the mouse move in any direction indefinitely without the cursor getting stuck at the edges of the screen. The reported position of the mouse is not updated while

love.mouse.getSystemCursor Available since LÖVE 0.9.0 This function is not supported in earlier versions. Gets a Cursor object representing a system-native hardware cursor. Hardware cursors are framerate-independent and work the same way as normal operating system cursors. Unlike drawing an image at the mouse's current coordinates, hardware cursors never have visible lag between when the mouse is moved and when the cursor position updates, even at low framerates. Function Synopsis cursor

love.mouse.getX Returns the current x-position of the mouse. Function Synopsis x = love.mouse.getX( ) Arguments None. Returns number x The position of the mouse along the x-axis. Examples Draw a vertical line at the mouse's x-position. function love.draw() local x = love.mouse.getX() love.graphics.line(x,0, x,love.graphics.getHeight()) end See Also love.mouse love.mouse.getY love.mouse.getPosition

love.mouse.getY Returns the current y-position of the mouse. Function Synopsis y = love.mouse.getY( ) Arguments None. Returns number y The position of the mouse along the y-axis. Examples Draw a horizontal line at the mouse's y-position. function love.draw() local y = love.mouse.getY() love.graphics.line(0,y, love.graphics.getWidth(),y) end See Also love.mouse love.mouse.getX love.mouse.getPosition

love.mouse.hasCursor Available since LÖVE 0.10.0 This function is not supported in earlier versions. Gets whether cursor functionality is supported.

Function Synopsis hascursor = love.mouse.hasCursor( ) Arguments None. Returns boolean hascursor Whether the system has cursor functionality. See Also love.mouse

love.mouse.isDown Checks whether a certain mouse button is down. This function does not detect mouse wheel scrolling; you must use the love.wheelmoved (or love.mousepressed in version 0.9.2 and older) callback for that.

Examples Toggles whether the mouse is grabbed by pressing tab, using love.mouse.setGrabbed. function love.keypressed(key) if key == "tab" then local state = not love.mouse.isGrabbed() -- the opposite of whatever it currently is love.mouse.setGrabbed(state) --Use love.mouse.setGra

love.mouse.isVisible Checks if the cursor is visible. Function Synopsis visible = love.mouse.isVisible( ) Arguments None. Returns boolean visible True if the cursor to visible, false if the cursor is hidden.

love.mouse.newCursor Available since LÖVE 0.9.0 This function is not supported in earlier versions. Creates a new hardware Cursor object from an image file or ImageData. Hardware cursors are framerate-independent and work the same way as normal operating system cursors. Unlike drawing an image at the mouse's current coordinates, hardware cursors never have visible lag between when the mouse is moved and when the cursor position updates, even at low framerates.
