Block mouse input when monitor goes into idle / sleep

[Ataricx]

I've seen a bunch scripts here and there, but no one seems to work here.

Want i want, is that when the screen goes into sleep, the mouse is must go to.

Why? I accidentally move the mouse when i am on my couch, it moves a half a cm then the monitor is turned on again.

so maybe there is a way the monitor only turns on when space bar is entered or any other key ONLY when the pc is used with the keyboard

i dont know what's best, i use 2 screens : 1 pc monitor and 1 tv where i watch sometimes, but mainly i dont use the last option, but my mouse is on the table and is accidentally moved and my monitor flips on

@YoucefHam thanx but that's not what i am looking for.

i found this:

Code: Select all

BlockInput, MouseMove

but it has to be on a timer when (example) 5 minutes of inacticity

it has to be active when a mouse click is used or when using a keyboard

so no accendental movement on the couch and monitor switches on..

sorry, i didnt mean sleep, but on standby.

Probably you must open the windows device manager and specify that the mouse cannot reactivate the PC from standby.
You know how to do that?

Cheers!

No, when a key is pressed (or mousebutton) the pc is in normal usage mode..... screen flips on, mouse and keyboard working...

when i use the code above, the mouse is blocked, so that works, only it need to reactivate again by a simple blockinput off after a key pressed or mouse button pressed

I've found this script, which does work and almost does what i wanted, EXCEPT the screen doesnt go on on mouse CLICK

here is the link to the script :https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?p=123420#p123420

When using devcon.exe there's no middle ground. It's either enabled or disabled... unless your mouse happens to report as multiple devices for additional buttons so then you can disable just one. I wonder whether AutoHotInterception could help, as it operates at driver level, to just block movement but not buttons high enough in the chain.
