    Question get nearest control to mouse cursor

    I am trying to get the nearest control to my mouse pointer in my app but somehow i can't manage to access the right thing. Project: http://files.filefront.com/MyMoO3rar.../fileinfo.html

    EDIT: figured out this far that it returns the index from panel1 Controls so i should divide the index by 3, but still it doesn't compare the right star control location altough i'm giving it only star Locations.





    Code:
    if (e.KeyData == Keys.Space && starMap1.MouseIsOverCtrl)
    
    {
    
    int distance, starIndex = -1, lastNearest = 0xFFFF;
    
    Point mousePoint = Cursor.Position, ctrlPoint; 
    
    Console.WriteLine("mouse location {0}", mousePoint);
    
    foreach(Star star in starMap1.starArray)
    
    {
    
    ctrlPoint = star.PointToScreen(star.Location);
    
    distance = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Sqrt(Math.Pow((mousePoint.X - ctrlPoint.X), 2F)+ Math.Pow((mousePoint.Y - ctrlPoint.Y), 2F)));
    
    if (distance < lastNearest)
    
    {
    
    lastNearest = distance;
    
    Console.WriteLine("lastNearest {0}", lastNearest);
    
    starIndex = star.Parent.Controls.GetChildIndex(star);
    
    }
    
    }
    
    Console.WriteLine("starIndex {0}", starIndex);
    
    }
