cursor_warp makes impossible to put back a browser tab on chrome window (maybe any other browse)

See original GitHub issue

Issue description

When using multi monitors, I find it very useful to change cursor position when changing focus of workspaces and windows.

But as you can see in the video, that’s an undesired behavior. As the title already says, I can’t put it back.

Other minor issues

When I click, holding CTRL, on a link to open a new tab inside a browser, for example, the cursor goes back to the center of that window.

If i click on someone’s profile picture inside telegram-desktop, the cursor also goes back to the center of the window (in this case is indeed a new window because of the way telegram handles this situation specifically).

Thee might be a lot of other examples, but that’s the general idea.

Wish list

It would be very nice (at least for me) if we could change this behavior on specifics windows, or if I could invoke a function (with lazy?) that centers the cursor manually when switch to a window or workspace.

Other

If there is documentation for the issue that I’m pointing here, I apologize, but I did a little bit of research before posting this issue.

I’m not demanding the devs to solve my problem, and by the fact that english is not my native language, I’m afraid I’m being a little rude.

Configuration

My config is very long and I don’t want to pollute this post, but I can confirm that cursor_warp = True

I think this should still be open until we fix the dragging issue.

Latest change should fix your next_screen issue.

As for the browser drag, we need to disable warping when the mouse is dragging but I can’t see where this variable is stored. There is a qtile._drag but this only seems to be set when it relates to a defined Drag in the config file.

@m-col any thoughts?
