LockInMouse

LockInMouse is a lifesaver for those of us with multiple monitors! You know how annoying it can be when your mouse cursor wanders off to that one screen you barely use? Well, LockInMouse has got your back. This handy open-source application creates an invisible border on your desktop, making sure your mouse stays exactly where you want it.

Easy Setup for Everyone

When you start up LockInMouse, a simple window pops up. Here, you just enter the coordinates to set up your invisible limits. You’ll define how far the cursor can roam by setting the top, bottom, left, and right boundaries. It sounds tricky, but it’s really straightforward!

Show Mouse Position Feature

If you're unsure about the numbers to enter, don’t sweat it! Just hit the Show Mouse Position button. This feature lets you see where your cursor is at any moment by showing its X and Y position on the screen. Once you reach that spot on your desktop that should be off-limits, grab those numbers and plug them into the right fields.

Quick Launch and Global Hotkeys

You don’t have to worry about complicated installations either; after unpacking the downloaded archive, you're good to go! We suggest setting up a global hotkey too—this lets you turn off LockInMouse anytime you need without having to fiddle with menus.

Keep It Running in the Background

Once everything's set up just how you like it, minimize LockInMouse to your system tray and carry on with whatever you're working on. Plus, you can add it to your startup list so it's ready every time you log in. You can even choose if you'd like the limiter activated automatically!

A Simple Solution for Cursor Control

To sum it all up: LockInMouse is a lightweight app that does exactly what its name suggests. It keeps your mouse movement in check by creating an invisible boundary around your active workspace while quietly running in the background so it doesn't distract you.
