Changed (bug?) feature in XMouse v2.0

Post by RhysPatto »

Hey guys, and phil,

Absolutely love XMouse, it is exactly what I was after to make my mouse quickly do what I want it to.
One problem I have come across after the recent upgrade from 1.60 to 2.0 is that now all actions seem to require the mouse cursor to be hovering over the current window for actions to occur, have I just not turned this feature on or is this a bug/feature change?

To explain, I have an action on my button #5 which switches monitors for Windows 7 ({LWIN}{SHIFT}{RIGHT}). I used to be able to hit this twice and the current window could jump back and forth between my two monitors, but with the new version, I click once, then have to move the mouse so it is hovering over the window again to use the action again.
(This is obviously not the practical reason for why I ask about this bug, just explaining how it has changed from the old XMouse version).

Thanks,
Rhys

There is an option in general settings to enable profile switching on mouse move ie, based on the window under the cursor. so your profile will be switching as the window moved away.

You can disable this option and it will revert to 1.5x (there never was a 1.60!)

Thanks,
Phil

That was exactly what I was after, thanks Phil.
Apologies as well, I forgot the old version so just used my *poor* memory to take a guess.
