I am trying to create a floating menu that appears at the mouse cursor's current location fully expanded when I press and hold CMD + OPTION and then as I hold those keys I can move the mouse over the option I want and let go of CMD + OPTION (or click) to trigger the action.
This seems completely plausible but I keep running into some issues and I don't know if my configuration is messed up or if there are potential bugs.
I am running into some issues where
The menu sometimes doesn't appear with the Modifier Based Visibility
Sometimes when it does appear it is not at the mouse's current location but a past mouse location
Sometimes it is in the collapsed state and I have to move the cursor off of the menu and back on it for it to reveal the actions
When the menu does appear - it doesn't recognize the intended highlighted item when the mouse is over it - meaning when the menu disappears nothing is triggered, but if I do it again it will appear in the same spot (which isn't correct) and then sees that an item is highlighted and then works
Edit: after making a new preset and creating a new Floating Menu using the initial values, I was actually able to solve 2 of the 4 issues above and I have crossed them off. But I am still having issues with issue number 1 and 2 and they might be potential bugs.
I came across this post as I’ve been trying to create a similar widget. However, I’ve encountered an issue where the floating menu is affected by window resizing instead of the intended hovered window. I downloaded your preset, but I'm struggling with the same issue on your widget. How did you make the actions execute on the "underlying" hovered window? I’ve attached a screenshot of the menu after selecting a layout for your reference. I appreciate the help!
When using the default resizing actions you can choose whether it uses the window under the cursor, or the focused window in the settings. You should change that to "focused window".
