Question

Guys, I have a C# Winforms application with a panel inside the form. What I want to do is, whenever the mouse pointer enters this panel, I want to slow the movement speed of the mouse by 50%. Once the pointer moves outside this panel, I want to speed of the mouse to resume normal 100% speed. How can I accomplish this in C#?

Here’s the code from the article:

using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

namespace MouseSpeedSwitcher
{
    class Program
    {
        public const UInt32 SPI_SETMOUSESPEED = 0x0071;

        [DllImport("User32.dll")]
        static extern Boolean SystemParametersInfo(
            UInt32 uiAction, 
            UInt32 uiParam, 
            UInt32 pvParam,
            UInt32 fWinIni);

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            SystemParametersInfo(
                SPI_SETMOUSESPEED, 
                0, 
                uint.Parse(args[0]), 
                0);
        }
    }
}
