treehousefrog Member Licensed User Longtime User Jun 24, 2013 #1 Hey guys, Sorry if this has been covered, but I couldn't find anything after extensive searching. Hope someone can help Basically I'm looking for a way to manipulate the mouse in Android. When you plug in an external mouse to the USB, a pointer comes up which can be used instead of touch input and gives you more precision/mouseover control. Basically I was hoping for a way to control this mouse pointer programmatically - creating a virtual touchpad. I can't find any documentation on controlling that pointer though, so would it please be possible for someone to point me in the right direction? Thanks a lot in advance :-D
