Couldn't make it work on Windows 10 #44

Closed SuperFola closed 3 years ago

SuperFola commented 3 years ago

Hi!

I'm deeply interested in using this on my computer, but so far I've tried a WSL2+VCXSRV, it connected to the display but the mouse wasn't moving, same with an admin powershell or an admin cmd prompt, it connects but the mouse doesn't move.

The command I tried: remouse --password XXXXXXXX --mode fit --orientation top --debug

On powershell and cmd prompt I have this output:

connected to 10.11.99.1
Debugging enabled...
Chose monitor: Monitor(x=0, y=0, width=1920, height=1080, width_mm=293, height_mm=165, name='\\\\.\\DISPLAY1')

On WSL2, only the monitor changes

Thanks in advance

How were you able to start the script? I installed it with pip3 but it does not recognise the remouse command

SuperFola commented 3 years ago

Pip installed it in my scripts folder which is in my path

You have to make sure you checked "Add Python to PATH" when installing Python

I also have this problem now, it connects successfully but then doesn't do anything, i tried opening a notebook but still no output on the screen on the pc

edit: after reading through the PR's i think it might be something with pullrequest #32

Yes, apparently that one worked for me

The PATH issue seems to be resolved now. Performance is bad on Windows (https://github.com/Evidlo/remarkable_mouse/issues/37), but you should still see mouse movement.
