Small mouse movements, cursor jumps back to old position #164

Open ShapeShifter499 opened 2 years ago

ShapeShifter499 commented 2 years ago

I'm using a Samsung Z Fold 4. I have enabled adb shell settings put global settings_enable_monitor_phantom_procs false to get around the process limit of Android 12.

I am using Andronix and Termux with the Andronix "Modded OS Manjaro" image which comes with XFCE.

To start I run XServer XSDL and then start the proot script from Andronix. From there I run export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1: && bash ~/.vnc/xstartup &

The system appears to run great and I have tested that I can playback video from Youtube using Chromium at what appears to be full speed.

However the issue I run into is if I try to make small movements of the mouse in trackpad mode with my finger, it "jumps back" to the position it was last in. It's annoying and I don't know how to solve it. It feels like a bug. Many times I need to aim the mouse just right to hit X to close a window or move over an small bit to click a link or menu button. In these scenarios the cursor will "jump" to the old position and it takes many tries and sometimes just flicking the mouse across the screen and back just to get the cursor to be where I want it.

Is this something that could be fixed somehow?

It's a feature to avoid drag&drop gesture when you are trying to double-click. And I agree that it's poorly implemented. Currently there's no way to disable it, other than to recompile the app.

I will fix it when I'm back from the war.

Stay safe and thank you for putting so much work into this app. It's far better than VNC for local chroot/proot installs of Linux
