how to use mouse_event to move mouse cursor in windows login screen?

Question

there is a same question in:

SetCursorPos and GetCursorPos not working at login screen?

the answer as resovled was

Alternative solution: It is possible (but very tricky) to use mouse_event (which does work at login screen) instead of SetCursorPos. I don't have time to post code now, but if asked I may update this answer...

so, does anybody know how to use mouse_event to move mouse cursor in windows login screen? thanks!

You could do something like this:

mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_MOVE | MOUSEEVENTF_ABSOLUTE, 20000, 20000, 0, 0);

Note the dx and dy parameters on in the range of 0 and 65535 and not the actual screen coordinates. I suppose you could convert them if you wanted to. Also, you can leave out the MOUSEEVENTF_ABSOLUTE flag if you want to move the pointer relative to it's last position.
