Why not do [gemmouse 8 4] for 2:1 window?
Of course you have to keep track of your own window size and alter the coords in responce, but that is largely the PD way anyhow, to keep track of what your doing yourself.
You could just normalize from 0 to 1 and rescale based on your window size?
As far as I know most platforms don't even allow mouse resizing of gemwindows...

Hi, it would be very helpful to change the behaviour of gemmouse a little bit (to get similar results to the translation of objects in the gemwindow). [gemmouse 8] should normalize to the height (like gemwin) and not to the width. given a rectangular gemwin any aspect ratio (no difference between 2:1 and 1:2...) always normalizes to the height and sets (with the default view) the top and bottom borders to +4 and -4 gemmouse 8 on the other hand normalizes to the width. this makes it very difficult (unpossible?) to build mouse interaction with variable window sizes. another feature wish: to be able to tell the dimensions of the gemwin. esp. after resizing by mousedrawing. thanks, marius.
