elevate window under cursor when using controller #277

Open LoganDark opened 1 year ago

LoganDark commented 1 year ago

Feature Description: it would be a lot easier to interact with the windows if XSOverlay would automatically raise them to the top when I hover over them

right now whenever I open a popup then I have to click on the window a couple times again to get it to focus properly before i can do anything. it would be nice if the overlay could automatically elevate the window to the top that i am pointing at, so that i can interact with it immediately

Additional context: when I hover over a window with my controllers, it probably means that it should be at the top on the desktop too

The overlay does actually try to pull any window you're hovering over to the front, both on hover and on click.

The Windows APIs for this are terrible though and unreliable, they sometimes just don't work as intended.

It's the same issue that happens if you've ever tried to save something and windows opens File Explorer behind other windows.
