Avoid host from catching mouse corner event

Post by Thannoy »

Hello,

I am using Mac OS X host system and running Linux guest system. My guest system have mouse corner capability but it is difficult to use since my host OS also catch them.
As opposite to the bug ticket #4139, I actually think we should never be bother by host OS when running guest in fullscreen (except when we use special virtualbox hotkeys of course).

If I understand correctly, #4139 enabled this feature. Is there a way to disable it?
I think it would be great to have a boolean config key or maybe an integer to setup duration before sending event to host OS.

Best regards.

If you're not in full screen, then it is just another "document" of an application. The behavior is/should be expected. I wouldn't want it otherwise.
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.
