qgis - Moving cursor using PyQGIS?

I would like to move the cursor to a given x,y coordinates of the MapCanvas.

Is there an easy way to do this using PyQGIS?

Answer

You can move cursor like that:

from PyQt4.QtGui import *

from PyQt4.QtCore import *

cursor = QCursor()
cursor.setPos(100, 200)

It moves your cursor to point 100,200 in your screen. If you want to get coordinate of a point on the map canvas, you need to translate them:

# coordinates of point on map canvas
point = QPoint(100,100)
# translate widget coordinates to global screen coordinates
global_point = iface.mapCanvas().mapToGlobal(QPoint(100,100))

# set cursor to these coords
cursor.setPos(global_point.x(), global_point.y())
