I'm sorry, I can't reproduce this problem. Is this the first time you're using the software? Has it worked before? Can you send the recording file?

Recording ended normally. The mouse position moves correctly when started, but it can't click. Any help would be appreciated！

Another person previously reported this bug, I too now am dealing with it and cannot figure out a solution

Thanks, Thomas. That's working great!
-
John, 1.11.3 has the fix for weird locations when closing the software while minimised. Sorry if that wasn't clear enough from the release post I made
-
Is that fix in an updated 1.11.3.0, Thomas? That's the latest ver to download and I had issues with that ver number see my post 2022-4-28.
-
That was unintended, I'll look into it. Thanks for letting me know

Beginning with release 1.11.3 i'm unable to open more than one instance at the same time, which i need, so I gone back to 1.11.1 where multiple instances work.
-
Thanks again to John, who uncovered the issue of storing location when the windows was minimised, we now have release 1.11.3. Good work!

Tested and bug confirmed. And fixed :) I'm so confident, I went straight to release. Thanks!

Version 1.11.3

That's a good one. I've never tested that. Will have a look at that next. Cheers

Hi, Thomas, In my testing tonight, the program only sets the position to -32000,-32000 (in the settings.json file) when the program is closed in the taskbar, and the program is minimized not actually open/visible on the screen. When I close the program from being open on the screen, it correctly writes the position to the settings.json.
-
John, There's no useful information in the log unfortunately :( I don't really know what to do with this. Did you say this only happens when you shut down the PC with MouseController still running? Or are you getting this with manually closing the software as well?

Hi, Thomas, I have no explanation of why, but I'm still having the program set the position to -32000,-32000 in the settings.json. I have attached the log file and the settings file. It has happened 2 times since my last post, but not every time I use it. The other values in the settings file appear to be working fine. Apparently the position was changed between 23 April and 24 April (the last date in the log file.) I wonder if it does this because when I close down my computer, I have the mousecontroller...

Hi, Thomas, Thank you for the updated version. I uninstalled the older version and installed 1.11.3.0 and it appears to be working. I see the log file and on startup the program is loading from the settings file and loading the mcd file quickly. I will continue to test and report results.

- Add logging to file
-
John, this should fix the window position and generate a log file in the same folder as the executable which may or may not have some useful information to figure out why your load takes so long. It really shouldn't take long. Maybe your virus checker is interfering with the process? Moving the window has no effect on loading settings and mcd files. I saw no issues with remembering the time stretch, both preset and custom. Hope you find the same. Once you have a log file of a session that took a...
-
Thomas, The startup loading is taking about 8 to 20 seconds with that same mcd file . I have no idea why sometimes it is more than twice as long to load. I am still testing in the positioning and repeat and Custom Time stretch. I specified F8 as the playback key, and that has been correctly saved and loaded each time. I opened and closed the program several times without doing anything else and it changed the position itself down and to the right (+22 higher values in both x and y) each time. The...
-
Thomas, The startup loading is taking about 8-9 seconds with that same mcd file . There seems to be little consistency in the positioning and repeat and Custom Time stretch. Sometimes, it appears to save the values to the settings file and then might load the custom Time stretch on re-start, and sometimes it doesn't. So far it has stored the position correctly in the settings file and then never loads in the position correctly on restart. The mcd file was correctly loaded about 7 times and then for...
-
Hi, Thomas, Thank you for the prompt change. The mcd file that I am loading is 82KB in size. Is that small? I have uninstalled MouseController, downloaded the 1.11.2.0 and installed it to test it. On first run the mcd file loaded instantly. I will test more and report results.
-
John, Thanks for raising those issues. I couldn't reproduce the problem with the weird location but I have changed how the location is stored hoping this would fix your problem. I also added an entry in the settings to remember the time stretch value. Loading settings at start-up shouldn't take any noticeable time. Again, I wasn't able to reproduce this problem. The only thing that can take some time is loading the mcd file, but unless yours is very large, it shouldn't take long. The easiest way...
-
Thanks to John we have another release: 1.11.2 This time I've changed how the window location is stored to (hopefully) avoid weird start-up locations. I also added an entry in the settings file to remember the time stretch value entered.

Store window position when its location changes rather than on shutdown
-
Thomas, I'm sorry to report that the same problem has occurred again. For some reason, sometimes when the application closes it writes the position in settings.json as follows: "Position":"-32000, -32000" The application is therefor not visible on the screen. I can edit the file and change the position before opening the application so I can see it, but something is still causing the issue sometimes when I open the mousecontroller app. Could this happen due to a crash of windows 7 or perhaps when...
-
Interesting, are you logged in as the "Public" user or are you installing for all users?
-
Program does run correctly, just thought this might be of interest
-
Hi, Thomas, I uninstalled and installed as you directed. It appears that you fixed that problem in your new release 1.11.1.0. (I also located the settings file to observe how it works.) Thank you! 👍
-
John, try the new version that I just released. To be sure, uninstall the previous version first. If it still happens, open the "settings.json" file in the folder where MouseController.exe is and change the Position to 0,0 "Position":"1284, 809" Or delete the entire file. If you can't find MouseController.exe, open your task manager, go to the Details tab while MouseController is running, right click on MouseController.exe and select "Open File Location". Hope this helps 👍

Version 1.11.1 is now available. It contains a small bugfix - thanks to Rylan for reporting it - to fix remembering of the "Repeat Every" value. I also added a checkbox to the About dialog to disable checking for updates. Both About and Update Available Dialogs pop up in the middle of the screen now. And I think I fixed an issue reported by John Galt where the UI disappeared off-screen after opening.

Thank you for your feedback. I have fixed this bug and will make a new release soon

bugfix: Remember number entered in "Repeat Every"

the new version doesnt remember the value last used in "Repeat Every" box, but it remembers the value in "Repeat."

why cant i get rid of the popup that tells us to install the new version, why make that persistent. i dont want the new version, and now i have to close that message window everytime.

I have had an issue with MouseController for a long time. After installation, it appears to work, but the next day (and all the time thereafter) the application is invisible on screen. The tab appears on the windows toolbar when the application is running, but I have not been able to get the application interface to work properly again. I just uninstalled the old version yesterday and installed the latest version. It worked well until I restarted the computer today. It's invisible again. I can get...

It's been a while! Version 1.11 is here - we seem to have skipped 1.10, never mind. With 1.11 there no longer is a separate portable version because portable is now the only option. All configuration files are kept in the folder where the .exe is. By default we no longer install to C:\Program Files but instead into the AppData folder of the current user. A major fix in this release is DPI awareness, which means you /should/ be able to use the software if your display resolution is not 100%.
-
Version 1.11 is out. It comes with a new configuration system, so better to throw out the old install entirely before updating. Let me know if this fixes your issues please
-
Forgot to include the app config file

I'm sorry, I haven't had a lot of time lately to deal with this. Also, can't reproduce the problem on my PC, which makes it hard to fix. I'll find some time soon to make a proper release of a new version that fixes at least some of the HDR problems.
-
I had the same issue and realised that the scale was at 150% on my screen. My knowledge in programming is limited but I wondered if there is a way to add a new text box in the software under "Repeat, Delay by ...." in which the user could select his/her screen magnification and the code could fetch that value for the recordings / playback (with a question mark next to it to explain what is this setting to new user, and where to search the screen magnification settings)? Don't know if that would be...

Yes, I 've downloaded the exe attached to the messages. and even Copied them to the installed folder and tried from there.
-
Just want to double check that you've downloaded the exe that I've attached to the messages in this thread, not from the Files tab.
-
Indeed, The Scale is set at 300%, and when I switch it to 100% it works fine. But everything is so small I can barely see anything. Is there a fix that would work?
-
- Add high DPI awareness
-
When windows detects a high DPI display it changes the scale of the display to avoid things showing up really tiny. In your display settings you have a drop down for scale. Yours is probably set to 300%. This maps the pixels of your screen to the pixels of your desktop. For 300% it means that 3 pixels of screen are 1 pixels on the desktop. Regular DPI screens default to 100%; that's a 1 to 1 mapping. In previous versions of MouseController I used low-level functions to GET the mouse position. This...
-
It's cool man, I just appreciate that you take the time to look into this, It looks like it is tripling the recorded value on playback, on either monitors.
-
I'm sorry this isn't working for you. I could initially reproduce your problem but now I can't. Fortunately, I had another idea. Please try the attached version.
-
I still get about the same results, I tried to run it from the download foleder and also from the programe fille directory, I use a Lg 75 inch tv and a 14 inch acer monitor.
-
Try this please. (Attachment removed; buggy)
-
There's an issue with the portable version, which is the one I sent you. Try this one while I figure what wrong
-
You're welcome to download the source code and modify it. I'll include your fixes if you send them back
-
Interesting. I had the same issue on my high dpi screen but this build fixed it. Might be a configuration issue. Did you run the new executable from the location where the old one is or somewhere else? I haven't tested loading an existing config.
-
Still doing about the same
-
Try this please.
-
How would I go about modifying this program? Can I?
-
This one is 1 inch left 1 inch dow top left corner of second monitor
-
I did it again with a 1/second recording
-
Here you go!
-
Interesting. Might be an issue with high dpi monitors. I have a 3000x2000 I can test this on. Could you please attach 2 mcd files. One where you do a 1 inch down-right near the bottom left hand corner of your screen and one where you do a 1 inch right-down near the top right hand corner of your screen.
-
This is the first time I try mouse controller, My resolution is at 4096 x 2160, I did disconnect the other monitor, I did not try a different mouse, if I go all the way into the right corner and record just a slight left and right like 1/2 an inch and replay it it it mouves about 1.5 inches, same thing up and down, once I get 1/3 of the way from the corner it just goes off the screen.
-
Has this worked for you before? Have you tried disconnecting your 2nd monitor? Is one of the monitors a high DPI and the other not? What are the resolutions? Have you tried a different mouse? When you record a very short gesture, such as just moving the mouse horizontally for a few pixels, and look at the recorded file, do the coordinates make sense?
-
When I try to replay, the mouse is not anywhere near where I recorded, and it just goes all over the place. I do have two monitors, but I am not moving between monitors. Using windows 10 pro. I am using a Logitech Trackman "trackball" Any way to fix this?
-
Thanks for letting me know. I don't have the resources to test on windows11 yet, so I'm afraid this will take a little bit to fix.

In windows11, mouse action is misrecognized. I expect a version upgrade.

nemba posted a comment on discussion General Discussion
I've found a possible solution to this. Open up mouse controller and then in your task bar, shift+right-click on it, then click on move. After that don't move your mouse at all and instead use your arrow keys to try and move it into the frame. For me it was hidden on the top left of my window out of frame and I just had to move it back in.

I deleted it and reinstalled it, but the situation did not change.
-
It's very difficult to understand the underlying problem from your description. Since the application has been working for you before I'm going to say the problem is with your computer. Have you tried deleting and re-downloading the application? Maybe a reboot will fix the problem
-
Even if I start it, it looks like an attachment and I can no longer use it. I was able to use it normally until the other day Is there a workaround?

At this point, the only takeaway would be to import the attached file above and see if there is some error handling you could put into the code to prevent such a file from being created and handle unexpected conditions created by such errors in other products. But that really presumes you don't have more pressing issues to tackle. :) Regardless, my problem is solved. Thanks for making this available and responding to user issues. I do appreciate all your work.
-
Hi robert, I'm sorry I haven't had time to look into this but it seems like you found the solution yourself and I wouldn't have been able to reproduce it anyway because I don't test inside virtualBox. So this is no longer an issue for you?
-
This is apparently a bug from VirtualBox fixed by an update. The virtualbox app was sending strange UI info when switching monitors.
-
This does not happen when I don't move the mouse between monitors.

This does not happen when I don't move the mouse between monitors.

Here is the file
-
If my mouse moves between monitors and I save, I get "Enum value '523' is invalid..." The file saves with content. When I load it , the message changes to "Invlid enum value '' cannot be deserialized..." Any ideas?
-
You can delete your settings by deleting the MouseController.exe folder in here: %LOCALAPPDATA%\MuGiRi_Software_Developme (Just paste that into your explorer address bar) Are you pressing the [start playback] button or the keyboard shortcut? What's the length (s) shown for your recording?
-
Giuseppe Lorenzetto posted a comment on discussion General Discussion
Yes it's the latest version Yes the duration it's for 100 loop, using delay between every loop. I'll try to make new recording and it reamins in idle mode. I'll try to uninstall nd install again but have no changes (but new installation Preserve the settings i've before uninstall, so i think some trace reamains after uninstall)
-
Are you using the latest version? Is the length of the recording you load in >0? Have you tried making a new recording and see if that works? Do you use any of the repeat/delay/stretch options?
