Incompatible with mouse jump

Open evinnichenko opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

LBM is incompatible with the various mouse jump utilities - eg the PowerToys one, but there are others - when jumping between screens due to LBM moving mouse from center of the screen to its edge.

Steps to reproduce: 0. Install a mouse jump utility, eg PowerToys. Have a multimonitor setup. Turn LBM on.

  1. Using that utility, move the cursor to any point on the second screen - center is recommended for clarity.
  2. Observe that instead of its supposed destination cursor ends up at the edge of its original screen and at the new Y-coordinate.

Howdy, came here looking for a fix right before I figured it out myself. The mouse jump utility of choice should be its own application (for powertoys the same is true).

This separation means that we can use exclusion rules in LBM to "prioritize" mouse jump over LBM control (see img).

  • when mouse jump is active, LBM is not,
  • when mouse jump disappears, LBM reactivates.

Mouse jump now works without issue.
