Notes: You can get the screen coordinates by the UI Event Handlers onMouseButtonDown, onMouseButtonUp, onMouseButtonClick, onMouseButtonDblClick. The return Array is in 2-D, you can use it with all set-position commands.
_x = returnArray select 0;
_y = returnArray select 1;

Notes: In VBS2 1.23 this command does not seem to work properly. Therefore when defining UI Event Handlers onMouseButtonClick and onMouseButtonDblClick the functions onMapSingleClick and onDoubleClick can be used instead, these already provide access to the world coordinates of the click event.
