UX: Pointer travel path should be more forgiving after choice #817

Open canadaduane opened 2 months ago

canadaduane commented 2 months ago

When an applet icon has been clicked (such as the "suspend/restart/shutdown" icon in the corner) the subsequent mouse travel path sometimes inadvertently touches another icon, switching to the briefly hovered other applet's window state rather than the original selected one

This can be a frustrating experience for the user if they cannot move directly to the desired content within the open window, but instead have to remember to move "down" then over.

See video for example.

I found this annoying too but eventually adapted to it. still would be nice for your feature request to be added
