      Sometimes I "lose" the cursor during a performance...

      How can I cause the cursor to appear at a position (x,y) on my laptop screen when I press the X key?

      Thanks.

            came up with a better way.

            Using robot class in Processing you can move the mouse around, so here is an app built in processing that will recieve an osc message and move the mouse to the co-ordinates sent.
            Have included an isadora file that sends the right message.

                    i made good experiences with a wacom tablet, mapping the mouse area only to the control screen

                    it is a hardware only solution but this way you can be sure to never push your cursor in the picture
                    and with a pen you can pick your buttons quite precisely (like the old cad stations did it, a printout of your control screen attached to the tablet…
