IDK, a mousetrapper (or similar) effectively does the same but doesn't require retraining your entire workflow and still allows for precision mouse work.
Ah, doesn't work with my tented split key setup. But it's a cool idea.
Oh thanks. I'll look into it!
I googled mousetrapper but dont understand what it is? Looks like an old school trackpad?
I found this, looks interesting https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=q7kjtvNuaHs
It's just a mouse-device that enables full regular mouse control without taking your hands off the keyboard as well. It's not actually a trackpad, it's a mechanical two dimensional scrolling plate (or bar) which is much nicer to use because it provides better feedback than a trackpad.
