XMBC Version: 2.20.5
Installed or Portable version: Installed
Windows Version: Windows 10 Enterprise N LTSC 10.0.19044 N/A Build 19044
Mouse Information (brand/model): Corsair RGP0030
Relevant Computer Information (CPU, RAM etc): n/a
Did the problem occur after an upgrade of XMBC? (If so, from what version?): n/a
Did the problem occur after a Windows update/upgrade? (If so, from what version?): n/a
How long have you used XMBC?: who remembers
What language and keyboard layout do you use in Windows?: US English, Programmer Dvorak
Clear description of the problem - try and include as much information as possible, including what button and mappings you are having problems with (if applicable).:
Is there a config to define how much the mouse cursor slows down when using the "Slow down mouse cursor (while pressed)" option?
In another post you said "It seems the movement in button held is not yet configurable though in the GUI at least" so I went to %APPDATA%/Highresolution Enterprises/ and found XMBCSettings.xml. There I altered the values of ChangeChord and ChangeHeld in <Cursor> and restarted XMBC but it didn't seem to affect the cursor speed while in the "slow down" state. I also tried changing the cycle speeds and looked through the rest of the GUI but can't find anything that does this. Is it in the Layer definitions later in the config file? Couldn't see anything promising.
Thanks

Re: "Slow down mouse cursor (while pressed)" config
No, its currently not configurable, at least not really. Its hard coded to a minimum of the slowest windows cursor speed possible OR 20% of the current mouse speed, which ever is lower.
When I said "It seems the movement in button held is not yet configurable though in the GUI at least" that's referring to the amount the mouse has to move to break the button held (or button chord) detection - nothing to do with the mouse cursor speed.

Re: "Slow down mouse cursor (while pressed)" config
All right, makes sense. I'll experiment here with higher mouse DPI or forcing higher baseline speed in software then. Thanks for the tool, it already let me solve my main annoyance of accidentally right-clicking things all the time because the switch is too light to even rest on (now I hold right and click left to right-click, and while right is held, the cursor is also slowed, hence the desire to configure that, but it wasn't the point in the first place so no big deal).
