A very very useful program which can load and position (in realtime) images onto the screen, and stores click coordinates into a text file. very easy to use, and very flexible.
Use this for finding the coordinates of buttons, or where to place a picture onto the screen, or where to draw an object, ect. just load images onto the screen, and get clicking!
