Request for Mouse/Keyboard Lock on SysTray Icon

from Stardock Forums
To: Multiplicity Development Team: Would it be possible to add the "Lock Mouse and Keyboard to the Current Desktop command to the Multiplicity System Tray Icon right-click menu for the primary display? I find myself locking/unlocking the primary desktop display with some regularity, and drilling into the dialog box is getting tedious. Thanks! Larry

Is there a reason you do not enable the scroll lock toggles between locked and unlocked feature and then use scrolllock to toggle the locked state?

Hmmmm. Had to think about that. Well, if I am mousing around, I would prefer not to have to lift my hand from the mouse, move it to the keyboard, push the scroll lock key, and then move back to the mouse to move the cursor to the second computer. Since I am using the mouse to move the cursor to the second computer anyway, stopping at the systray and right-clicking the Multiplicity icon seemed to require less steps. --Larry

Hmmmm. Well, when using the mouse to shift computers, there is greater effort, imho, to take a hand off the mouse, move it to the keyboard, press the scroll key to unlock Multiplicity, move hand back to mouse and scroll to second computer than there is to use the mouse to right-click on the Multiplicity systray icon. --Larry
