Research direction

Locate the C++ definitions and declarations for ofGetMouseX(), ofGetMouseY(), ofGetWidth(), and ofGetHeight(). Read how their return types are exposed and used, then check the relevant tests or examples for divisions such as ofGetMouseX() / ofGetWidth(). Done means the mouse-coordinate functions return float consistently without breaking existing callers.
