Solution for mouse-only navigation (no keyboard)

[Geodesic0]

Hi all,

I went on a side quest to see if I could use Kando with the mouse-only (no keyboard), and also with only a single mouse button click to fully activate all gestures. Happy to say I got it working and just thought I'd share my code here for any other AutoHotkey (AHK) users. This script is written in AHK v2, and I am using one of the middle buttons on my mouse (which can be configured to a different mouse button or mouse button combination by replacing "MButton" below). The shortcut to activate Kando is the default (Control and Space), but that is handled by the mouse button through the following code:

MButton::{
    loop {
        if getkeystate("Mbutton", "p"){  ;if Mbutton is physically held down by the user.
            Send "{Ctrl DOWN}"
            sleep 50
            send "{Space}"
        }
        else{
            break
        }
    }
    Send "{Ctrl Up}"
    return
}

I am not sure if this functionality will be similar to the "Hover Mode" previewed to be coming soon, but thought I'd share my solution in the meantime. Kando is a super cool app! Looking forward to seeing future updates.

Thanks a lot for sharing this! Now I have something to link to if the question pops up again 😄
