Holding Win+Arrow Moves the Window #13

Open stevenilsen123 opened 1 year ago

stevenilsen123 commented 1 year ago

When editing text, holding the Win key + an arrow key such as right causes the active window to be pinned to the right side of the screen after moving the insertion point a few words forward.

Acceptance criteria: holding the Win key + an arrow key such as right should move the insertion point one word at a time without moving the active window

I have actually managed to fix this by remapping the Win+arrows shortcuts in PowerToys Keyboard Manager and disabling the alt+arrow keys shortcuts in the mac.ahk file. It would require some tweaks to completely simulate the behaviour of the Mac keyboard and I'll do it once I have both my Windows and Mac computers side by side, but in general seems like this is the way. I am even thinking about moving all the remappings to PowerToys, not sure about possible limitations compared to AHK, but I'd prefer having it all in one tool. The disadvantage seems to be that it's not easily shareable like AHK scripts.
