I am new to pygame and wouild like to know if it is possible to click on a game surface and find the x,y co-ordinates of the mouxe click. The co-ord system is a bit confusing and I would lkie to be able to plan a drawing by identifying co-ordinates. I seem to recall seeing somewhere the use of a print statement to do this.

Thanks

With pygame events you can do this.

for event in pygame.event.get()
    if event.type == pygame.MOUSEBUTTONDOWN:
        if event.button == 1:
            print(event.pos)
