@Jeffery To: I don't know enough about X programming to fix the menu issue (and my limited knowledge suggests that it's not possible for an application like XCreateMouseVoid - it really does not receive events when other window does "active mouse grab"; one would have to use XTest, I imagine (and I remember seeing an app doing exactly this to "fix" the same issue that's being discussed here (but it was KDE-dependent, so I was too lazy to try it))).
As for the 'mouse stuck at the edge' problem: try creating a largish void with the top-left corner far away in the negative coordinates; for best results - with the _center_ in the negative coordinates; i.e. if your invisible zone is from 0,0 to 1024,400 - do smth like XCreateMouseVoid -1100 -500 2124 900 That should make it impossible for the mouse to enter the zone where it's being "pushed away" from the screen (usuccessfully); just '-1 -1' isn't enough as the first event seen by XCreateMouseVoid may be well inside the window due to "mouse acceleration" and/or system load. -- Pointer goes offscreen on non-rectangular dual-head https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373367 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
