Indeed, even Elgato has their own app here. I started to wonder if there perhaps existed anything similar on the Apple Appstore. Combined with a powerful editor, it looks like you can control almost anything! Of course you have to shell out a decent amount of money to purchase this goody! Approx USD 175 here in Norway to be more precise! But then I discovered the Touch-Portal app! The Stream Deck seems to be very powerful device, with small OLED-screen buttons that can change images after the functions you choose. That works, but unfortunately that is so easy to forget! Wishing for Elgato’s Stream Deck …Īfter a while struggling to remember to de-focus before pressing the global hotkeys, I started to dream about other solutions, such as the the extremely nice looking Elgato Stream Deck He also had a tip Remember to focus to the desktop, before pressing the F8 to F12, that will enable PointerFocus to catch it’s global hotkeys. Chang answered almost immediately that the wish was duly noted. I contacted the developer of PointerFocus about this issue and suggested that it would be great if PointerFocus could have editable global hotkeys, so I for example could CTRL + SHIFT + 1 for Highlight and so on. As you see, F8 to F12 is already occupied! In VS2019 F8 means Edit:GotoNextLocation, F9=Format.AlignMiddles, F10=Debug.StepOver, F11=Debug.StepInto and F12=Edit.GoToDefinition. For example, I use Visual Studio as my main Integrated Development Environment (VS2019). Unfortunately this makes the global hotkeys difficult to use in many other applications. The global hotkeys aren’t possible to change, so you are stuck with hardcoded F8 to F12 to control PointerFocus.
PointerFocus can also use global hotkeys to quickly toggle the features. The user interface of PointerFocus is a nice little wheel-UI, like this įrom the UI you can choose which feature you want to enable. Magnify the area where the mouse points.Spotlight the mouse, darkening the whole screen and shining the light on the mouse!.After a while I found a nice tool name PointerFocus (see ) which has some very nice features indeed
