How to show Windows Form when user cursor is on the right side of the screen?

Question

i'd appreciate if someone could give me a hint :) I have my Windows Forms C# app and i put the start position to the right side of the screen. Now i'd like it to appear only when the user's cursor touches right side boundary of the screen. How can i track the position of the cursor and show the form? Thank you in advance!

Answering in terms of decomposing the question:

• How do I know where the right side of the screen is?
  • How to retrieve the Screen Resolution from a C# winform app?
• How do I know what the position of the mouse cursor is?

That should get you started. I'm assuming you already know how to use a Timer to repeatedly do things (such as poll for the mouse position).
