Setting the cursor to a specified row and column
Hello
I have to set my cursor position to a specific row and column for entering the data in a frame . This is in AS400
I was able to get the current cursor row and column by using cursorCol and cursorRow.
Is there any way to set the cursor to a specific row and column ?
Thanks

On your AS400 terminal you select which font you use. Take a fixed font, note the width/height and do simple math. Beware of screen dpi.
Y = (Row - 1) * font height +font heigth / 2
X = (Col - 1) * font width + font width / 2
Row 3 col 2 and font 8x16 ->
Y = 2 * 16 + 8 = 40
X = 1 * 8 + 4 = 12
And then do a mouse click on theses coords.
