Focus cursor on the window

[r3t4k3r]

Description

Note: i use 2 display setup

1. I start the game (using wine)
2. I set up fullscreen for game window
3. Mouse and keyboard focused on window, but when i move cursor into another display direction, cursor leave the window and goes to second display. But i want to still fixed on window

I already tried these window rules:

windowrulev2 = windowdance, fullscreen:(.*1.*)
windowrulev2 = forceinput, fullscreen:(.*1.*)
windowrulev2 = fakefullscreen, fullscreen:(.*1.*)

But it still not working. I don't know is Hyprland already has a feature to fix cursor on window or not. Rules above work, but them don't help to solve my problem.

Best wishes, r3t4k3r.

Same thing, I haven't seen this behavior before 41-42 version.

Would be nice to have a dispatcher to make the cursor exclusive to a window.

However, video games have this option in the game's menu. Have you tried it ?

That is old game "Bully", in settings game hasn't option for fix cursor, i also tried to change wine environment, but it also didn't help me

Good idea

Tried to play Elden Ring, Abiotic Factor and Deadlock. Same issue in all games with using fullscreen, windowed in game and tried with gamescope. Result the same.

Maybe I will try to experiment more with gamescope, but it would be great to run games without any "spikes". 😋

Tried today rebuild Hyprland from sources by myself, without official Arch hyprland package and without hyprland-git.

With such game launch options everything works fine:

gamescope -W 3440 -H 1440 --force-grab-cursor %command%
