Buy me a coffee if you like this project.
Just as the name suggests, the aim of this project is simple - now you can slow your mouse down by simply holding a modifier key. In this way, you can easily align your mouse to a certain pixel. It's useful under circumstances such as:
- Dragging some slider such as the volume slider, and trying to obtain an accurate value.
- Trying to resize a window or a box but simply having trouble aligning the mouse to the anchor.
- Trying to select an accurate rectangle of the screen for screenshot or capturing.
- Trying to drag a piece of image to an accurate place. (it's tencent's captcha, isn't it?)
Note: This application is Windows only. It works by changing the mouse sensitivity settings, so won't work for a touchpad. It should also not affect games that are using raw mouse input.
To download prebuilt binaries, go to the Github releases page.
Launch the application and you will see a tray icon. Right click it to modify the settings.
This application does NOT start on boot automatically. You can configure it to do so by dropping its shortcut into the Startup folder.
To test it, simply run python slow-mouse.py.
To build, run build.cmd. It relies on the pyinstaller package.
