  A proper wiggler should reset the timer every time you actually move your mouse so it never do it while you are using your mouse

    And wiggle not every second too, like 1 pixel every 30 sec. That was the only thing I disliked with the cheap wigglers, they were great otherwise.

        with scroll lock the arrow keys move between cells, without it they scroll the sheet.

      For non-devs (like me), yes.

    You can try the physical wigglers? They’re like $20ish and can be plugged into a power source that’s not your work device if your company is particular about that too.

    It’s basically a timer and a cheap motor that rotates a disc with a pattern that is meant to trick laser mice into thinking that it’s being moved across a valid surface. Some are better than others.

    Other homemade solutions would be opening notepad and having a heavy object press a key, but that seems not ideal for random window pop-ups.

      Arrow keys are pretty safe to hold down.

  Caffeine’s great. I use it to keep my computer on if I’m out doing errands so I can check my emails and whatnot with a remote desktop through my phone.

  I often wondered how they did that, thanks!
