Hide menu when mouse outside circle #18

Closed kontosa closed 1 year ago

Would you consider an option to deselect the highlighted action if the mouse moves outside the circle? Currently whatever action the mouse exits the circle from, stays highlighted - but I was expecting once outside the circle no action should occur when releasing the mouse button? I find I have to move back into the middle of the circle to then release the mouse (I have a habit of moving the mouse a bit much!). An alternative option could be to just close the menu once outside the circle - after a configurable delay (e.g. like 'Selection Search' extn can).

Hi Craig, I can not think of any real life use cases which could benefit from such option. Current behavior is intended to allow for wide gestures when your target is one of the outside actions, so that you don't have to aim for them precisely to select.

Ok thanks for considering it.
