Mouse Activity During 'expandfolders' on menus

[ken gray]

my mouse tracking is very spotty when i have a menu with the "expandfolders" option and the folder actually expanded.

It is again the case where it works well for me.

Maybe it is related to mouse or accessible object triggers. Try with empty qml file. As a test menu, you can use floating toolbar -> Files, web -> Run program -> Menu.

Or, if it happens only with some menus, I would like to see one of them.

i tried it with a new qml and it works fine.

i think it's the low level mouse hook that's doing it.

sorry.

A hook that you have set using SetWindowsHookEx?

[ken gray]

no, the setting in the Options dialog. when i unchecked it, the prob went away.

Also using keyboard/mouse detector?

[ken gray]

yes i am using the keyboard detector.

[Gintaras]

But only multiple keyboards, not mouses?

Maybe also using other mouse-related software?

How if you create simple menu containing all the same files? (to create quickly, select all files in a folder and drag and drop to an empty menu)

I am using another mouse mouse that has macros tied to its buttons and using the filter function.

yes, i could do that but the folder items will be changing quite often.

only to test how it works

because it is strange why 'expand file folders' menus behave differently

i build a quick menu with those 5 files with low level mouse hooks and that new menu seems to work just fine.
the other menus (with the expandfolders option) are still slowing down the mouse with the "low level mouse hooks".

I'll have to review the code. Thank you.
