    The horizontal position of the mouse cursor, relative to the left edge of the game window.
  • y
    Type: Int32
    The vertical position of the mouse cursor, relative to the upper edge of the game window.

Remarks

When using this method to take relative input, such as in a first-person game, set the position of the mouse to the center of your game window each frame. This will allow you to read mouse movement on both axes with the greatest amount of granularity.
