SDL2 window resize mouse position - resize

Question

How do i make so that positions adapts to the new window position when i resize my window in SDL2 and with SDL_RenderSetLogicalSize?
I want to be able to hover a text and make it change color but whenever i resize the window its still in the same window cords. Is there a way to adapt the mouse?
void MainMenu::CheckHover()
{
for (std::list<MenuItem>::iterator it = menuItems.begin(); it != menuItems.end(); it++)
{
Text* text = (*it).text;
float Left = text->GetX();
float Right = text->GetX() + text->GetWidth();
float Top = text->GetY();
float Bottom = text->GetY() + text->GetHeight();
if (mouseX < Left ||
mouseX > Right ||
mouseY < Top ||
mouseY > Bottom)
{
//hover = false
text->SetTextColor(255, 255, 255);
}
else
{
//hover = true
text->SetTextColor(100, 100, 100);
}
}
}

I had a similar problem some time ago, and it was due to multiple updates of my mouse position in one SDL eventloop. I wanted to move a SDL_Texture around by dragging with the mouse but it failed after resizing, because somehow the mouse coordinates were messed up.
What I did was rearrange my code to have only one event handling the mouse position update. Also I'm not using any calls to SDL_SetWindowSize(). When the user resizes the window the renderer is resized appropriately due to SDL_RenderSetLogicalSize().
The relevant code parts look like this - some stuff is adapted to your case. I would also suggest to use a SDL_Rect to detect if the mouse is inside your text area, because the SDL_Rects will be resized internally if the the window/renderer changes size.
//Declarations
//...
SDL_Point mousePosRunning;
// Picture in picture texture I wanted to move
SDL_Rect pipRect;
// Init resizable sdl window
window = SDL_CreateWindow(
"Window",
SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED_DISPLAY(displayIndex),
SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED_DISPLAY(displayIndex),
defaultW, defaultH,
SDL_WINDOW_SHOWN | SDL_WINDOW_RESIZABLE );
renderer = SDL_CreateRenderer(window, -1, SDL_RENDERER_ACCELERATED);
SDL_SetHint(SDL_HINT_RENDER_SCALE_QUALITY, "linear"); // This one is optional
SDL_RenderSetLogicalSize(renderer, defaultW, defaultH);
// SDL main loop
while(SDL_PollEvent(&event) && running)
{
switch (event.type)
{
// Some event handling here
// ...
// Handle mouse motion event
case SDL_MOUSEMOTION:
// Update mouse pos
mousePosRunning.x = event.button.x;
mousePosRunning.y = event.button.y;
// Check if mouse is inside the pip region
if (SDL_EnclosePoints(&mousePosRunning, 1, &pipRect, NULL))
{
// Mouse is inside the pipRect
// do some stuff... i.e. change color
}
else
{
// Mouse left rectangle
}
break;
}
}
