Remarks
The ILineInfo interface that this method gets provides information about the location of a display pointer on the screen. For instance, ILineInfo::x provides the horizontal distance from the display pointer to the left side of the element containing it. ILineInfo::baseLine gives a vertical position for the display pointer relative to the top of the containing element. IDisplayServices::TransformPoint is useful for converting these coordinates to an appropriate frame of reference.
