Where are you getting mousex and mousey from, if not mzscript?

I use those variables in my desktop switching hotspots (or hotregions, or 
hotbars, or whatever), but I have to define them first with a !labelInfoExport, 
like so:

moveLonLeftClick 	!execute [!labelInfoExport %#mousey%# "[after(mousepos,'y: 
')]"][!vwmLeft ][!parseEvars !mousemove -1 %#mousey%#][!parseEvars 
!sounds%#Sounds%# $soundsdir$moveLeft.wav]

I don't think they're defined by default, unless you're using the mzscript version.
