AccHitTest ... Kannt ich gar nicht! Sehr spannend! ... und dann bei 50:00 die Bombe: "Geht nicht mit negativen Koordinaten ... " - Als gelernter M$ler, nur mild verwundert. Mannomann! Wir schreiben das Jahr 2024. ich habe genau diese Konstellation hier am Schreibtisch, weil der eine oder andere Kunde das eben auch hat ... Wetten werden angenommen, wann M$ den Bug fixed: Ich sage: nicht vor 2030!
Danke für den Upload!

I agree that Accessibility functions are such an important feature to Windows developers as a whole that it should have been resolved a long time ago.
I reported the issue in January and the Access team have indicated it will be fixed. Hopefully it will be fixed well before 2030. The difficulty is that the Accessibility code isn't Access specific so its not clear (to me) who is responsible for it being updated.
For info another useful Accessibility function, accLocation, DOES work with negative co-ordinates! Go figure!
Hope you found the video useful. More details on my website (see link above) together with articles on each item and more detailed videos about most of the items covered
