Errors seen on very rare occasions

On very rare occasions the app throws the Unable to move mouse pointer error.
I still haven't been able to figure out the exact scenario when it happens.
Let me know if anyone else also faces the issue and at what time.
Edit: This doesn't affect the ability of the app to move the mouse, it's a one-off error, which means the app had issues moving the mouse 3 times in a row.
Yep, it happend here, I was just letting the mouse on a remote streaming computer. Do you need any context?
Sure! Let me know if there is a way for you to reproduce it
It happened to me as well, any idea of what is the issue?
Most probably the issue is related to the github.com/go-vgo/robotgo repo, since that is the engine behind this app. I can see 2 reasons for this error:
- Under a very specific scenario, the robotgo library doesn't let me query
robotgo.GetMousePos()accurately, which makes this app think that the mouse didn't move, and hence reports the error. - Under a very specific scenario, the robotgo library doesn't let this app move the mouse itself, which makes this app report the error that the mouse didn't move.
It's all very random, so I am not able to pinpoint where and when it happens.
Also I haven't found the time to integrate with robotgo's latest releases, there's a chance that might fix things (but not sure).
The good thing is the app will continue to move the mouse even after the error occurred, so it won't hinder the functionality.
