Request: Option to have the cursor move to the selected window

[imjb1812]

I use switcheroo with 3 monitors. It would be very helpful if there was an option to have the cursor move to the window I select in switcheroo. Thanks!

Perhaps also raise an Issue in my fork as I might implement this feature.

I implemented this in Autohotkey to center mouse inside active window whenever it changes. And it's so smooth to have the pointer always in place, just an inch away from what you want to click, esp. for multi-monitor setups, and it works even with context/settings/menus/browser popups/ etc. !

will you please share this implementation?

I created a standalone autohotkey script CenterMouseOnActiveWindow.ahk. If you are familiar with ahk you know what to do with it. If not, you can use it out of the box like this:

1. download this CenterMouseOnActiveWindow.zip
2. extract and run the CenterMouseOnActiveWindow.exe

Use it for some time and tell me what you think about it :-)

thanks for this. I am familiar with ahk. Will look at your other scripts too :)

@MartinLichtblau do you happen to know how to modify it so it only focuses the mouse when the virtual desktop changes?

[MartinLichtblau]

No, but this should be hard. What for? What doesn't work?

I just prefer for the mouse to move only when when I focus a window on a different monitor

[MartinLichtblau]

I see, differing between different monitors is possible != virtual desktop.
