  • How to get the mouse button state?

    Looking to get the mouse buttons state , but not when interacting with a Dolphin window, instead from windows itself. What I'm doing is using gdi+ to draw arrows over an external chess program so the cursor won't be over any dolphin windows.

    Hilariously ChatGPT was able to answer my question, looks like I need to use getAsyncKeyState:
