Move mouse cursor when switching workspaces

SnoutBug opened this issue · 3 comments

I currently have chc set up in a way that allows me to switch workspaces with my cursor. This way I can easily drag windows to a new workspace, so that it almost feels like a second monitor

unfortunately in doing so the cursor maintains the same position on screen so that the window ends up on the right side of the screen rather than the left as can be seen in the video

so my request would be to add an option to move the cursor to the opposite edge when switching workspaces, ie.
Next Workspace - Moving Cursor left
Previous Workspace - Moving Cursor right

It makes no sense to me, if you needed to move the window from the first workspace to the third, this feature would make it super annoying. It might look cool, but there is no real benefit - you need wider trackpad / more space for mouse.

it would be just as annoying as moving a window from your first to the third monitor in a triple monitor setup. Additionally that does not mean that the old functionality would disappear for people who don't want to simulate monitors.

I'm trying to convince you that you don't need it because my time is limited ;) Since this is already the second request for this feature, I'm not saying no, but can't tell you when.
