In macOS code there is similar method that checks for mouse offscreen locations called checkMousePos() which updates and clamps the mousePosition stored in CRobot and is called after mousePress and mouseRelease, but I think it makes more sense to do the clamping during the mouseMove instead of having the mouse move to nonexistent coordinates then performing operations on a clamped location based on those nonexistent coordinates.
