Mouse hot corner for full screen preview

Postby lamborghini » 19.08.2011 20:16:47

The full screen preview provides a quick glance of the all the virtual desktops. From here we can also choose the desktop that we want to navigate to.

In my Mac I access this operation very frequently by using the mouse hot corner option (e.g. placing the mouse cursor at top-left of the screen triggers the command).

I was wondering if you are planning to provide similar option in the upcoming version of this great virtual desktop software.

This option already exists.

Run Dexpot's "Settings" utility and select Controls in the left-hand column.
Then select the "Mouse Switch" tab and choose the values you want.

:dex:

The existing "Mouse switch" feature is only for desktop switching, but Dexpot 1.6 will indeed support hot corners for bringing up the fullscreen preview. Let me know if you'd like to test the beta version.

I can't seem to find this feature in the current release. Mouse switch seems to switch desktops instantly instead of showing the fullscreen-preview.

Is there a way to assign actions to hot corners, so that fullscreen-preview could be shown?

Thanks a lot

[update]

Sorry, I just had an epiphany right after posting and figured that it could be a plugin ("MouseEvents") and that it may not together with the other Mouse Switch options (maybe you should give a hint at the mouse-switch-page).

I had the same issue.. while the "Mouse Switch" from controls may work. setting the delay to immediatly in the "MousEvents" plugin may pose an issue i set it delay to a minimum of 100ms and it worked again!


hope i helped =]

is it possible to switch to the next/previous Desktop by mouse corners without an additional window?
e.g. top left corner equals prev. Desktop, top right equals next.
