Answer 1

Use SwingUtilities class. It has method

public static Point convertPoint(Component source,int x, int y,Component destination)

The source is the MouseEvent mev.getSource() destination is the target component.

Also you can use

public static void convertPointToScreen(Point p,Component c) 

if you need screen coordinates
