Re: SmartNAV's mouse cursor is lagging in some windows

Re: Dwell clicking software doesn't click in some windows

<r>I have found the roots of the issue: Windows user privileges.<br/> <br/> Solution: <br/> Simply run the dwell clicker and SmartNAV as administrator. (yes, also SmartNAV because in the windows where I couldn't click most of the time I couldn't move the mouse cursor neither).<br/> <br/> Test: <br/>...

Emulating mouse clicks without using hand/foot/voice

Hi all, SmartNAV is awesome to move the mouse cursor, however every time I present how it works to somebody the first question is: "how do you click?". The dwell clicking software is very good, but sometimes we would like to be able to trigger the click and not wait for it. Voice recogniti...

Re: Are multiple screens possible?

Thanks! SmartNAV is already in its essence thinking outside the box, as epitomized by this comment on StackExchange which received +2 approvals, which was the first comment I received following a question I asked on hands-free mice: "Quite frankly, I would just go with a normal mouse. I mean, w...

SmartNAV's mouse cursor is lagging in some windows

<t>Here is the biggest issue I face when using SmartNAV in Microsoft Windows 7: the mouse cursor lags whenever it is hooked within an application which tends to freeze, even slightly (e.g. Windows Explorer, Microsoft Word, etc.). For example, when I want to select a piece of text in Adobe Profession...

Re: Dwell clicking software doesn't click in some windows

<r>I use the basic theme. Actually, it works fine under my computer running Windows 7 SP1 and my computer running Windows XP (sorry, I should have checked it earlier). So I begin to wonder if the issue isn't "specific" to the main computer I use (which run under Windows 7, no SP1). Maybe an interfer...
