Mouse affects app selection even if not moving #8

Closed zerowhybr closed 2 years ago

Currently, dlauncher gui changes its selected app (after typing an app name) just by having the mouse pointer over it, which in my experience is not a good user experience.

Example: you want to open Vim. You type "vim" and press enter, but your cursor is in the middle of the screen and GiMP was selected, opening GiMP instead of Vim.

I believe that a good way to approach this is to only change the selection if the mouse pointer moves, as that would prevent this kind of issue.

Yep, I also get pretty annoyed by this I'll try getting some sort of fix next week or this weekend.
