Yes I have a CursorNavigator.ini that actually contains my settings. But these aren't read/displayed/used by the script.


The script behaves really crazy.... works only at the top of monitors 1 and 2, but not at all on monitor 3, also not at all at the sides of the desktop (most of the time...) Then it suddenly changes and decides to work on monitor 3 and on the desktop sides, but not anymore on monitors 1 and 2.

Where is your version after all, in order to give it a try?

It is linked in the title post, works in single monitor setup :

Thanks --- this seems to work MUCH better! I hardcoded my desktop width into the script and it works with no problems with three monitors.

Also it saves AND reads its settings.

Btw, a question reagarding the script:

How does the timer CheckMousePos work? Is it correct that the timer is only called from within itself, and why is that so? Doesn't it take a lot of CPU to have the timer as low as 10 milliseconds?

Aaaaaahhhhg it doesn't work when dragging files over screen edges

That's actually the only purpose I'd need the script for....

Maybe I did not know about Critical, then.


10ms is enough help to not heat up the processor - if that is what you are worried about. Running this script for one year would put less strain than a '1 hour video conversion' - is my baseless guess.
But of course, the script could have been written better since I was just a noob when I wrote it. If I rewrite it now, I would use A_TimeIdlePhysical to dynamically accelerate/decelerate period between 10,100 & 500 ms.

The following part of the code is the culprit:



Without that part of the code ( in darkred ), if you try to resize a window to the edge of your screen, it will jump to the opposite direction. So that part of code checks whether you left mouse button is down, before it can alter the mouse cursor position.

If you replace the code with following ...



.. then you can drag files when left control button is down.

Hope that helps...

Thanks very much Skan -- I'll try that then.

Keep up the good work,

Cheers David.P
