osc autohide and cursor-autohide not work when mouse hovering osc

Open ghost opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Expected behavior of the wanted feature

Osc should auto-hide while mouse hovering on bottom or top of osc, like every other player does, but mpv does not. If such feature is implemented, add reset auto-hide timer or stop if interacting with the osc, such as seeking with mouse, until the interaction is over.

Alternative behavior of the wanted feature

Osc does not auto-hide while mouse hovering on bottom or top of osc. As such, the mouse has to move to the center away from the top and bottom of the osc to auto-hide. This gets annoying having to move the mouse again when the mouse suddenly hovers over the top or bottom of the osc -- or worse, having osc-deadzone set to 1. Which means the mouse has to move away from the top or bottom of the osc every time.

OP is a ghost but valid feature request imo so noting this for later. By design the mouse does not hide while hovering over the osc.

Hey, how about this?

I also like the OSC to dissapear after n seconds when my mouse cursor is hovering it.

I agree. Because it annoyed me, I added it to ModernZ via setting osc_keep_with_cursor=no. It will hide based on hidetimeout value (2 seconds).
