Chart dimensions and mouse xy

Hi all,

Looks like the numbers used by the Chart width and height values are not in
the same units as the mouse x or y values returned with mouse events...

What are these two types of units? How do I convert between the two?

I wish to use the mouse xy to tell me where I am clicking on a scatter plot
(and NOT on a datapoint... just in the chartspace)

Thanks for everything!

Mike
 
I believe the XY returned by the Mouse events are in points, same as the
chart element dimensions. They do not use the same origin. The Mouse
XY starts at the top left of the chart object, while the chart element
origin is the top left of the chart area. This posting might clarify it:
