`mouse_backward` and `mouse_forward` chatter not blocked
Closed this issue · 2 comments
Application correctly registers that chatter occurred (chatter.wav is played), but the second click is not blocked (chatter still occurs).
I tested this by setting mouse_backward's chatter threshold to 1000 and double clicking that key. chatter.wav played, but applications that I tested this on (file explorer and chrome) received both clicks. The same happens with mouse_forward.
mouse_left works as expected.
Oh this was extremely confusing to diagnose.
I could see the detections, was confident it was blocking, but I had the same result as you - it was registering in programs anyway.
I searched a while for possible code mistakes, alternative mouse hooks that may be relevant, etc.
But then ... I held the key down, and noticed nothing moved - until I released it.
... Programs don't listen to the forward/backward button being pressed. They're listening for it being released! And KeyboardChatterBlocker allows duplicate releases through (to avoid bugs with keys accidentally getting virtually stuck down).
I updated the code to block key release for these two mouse buttons, and have published as Release 1.16.
Seems to be perfectly blocking it now for me!
Amazing! Thank you for your hard work!
