This script runs a script / changes a setting when you click on one of the edges of the UI (left, right, top) and even provides for alternates when pressing left/middle/right button and ctrol/shift/alt keyboard.

When you first run this script nothing is displayed on the screen. It doesn't have a UI per se, it just "works" after you run it.

For example:
Double-click the right edge of the screen.
Was the viewport max/min toggle executed?

39 commands are allocated in it by using together with the Ctrl/Shift/Alt key.
(Though it is confused when it is too a lot of)

You can operate it without avoiding eyes from object, as for you, work efficiency will rise.

Please look at the source code about the method of customizing.

hi , I had completely forgotten right monitor users. :)

yes, this script is very simple. The click point is specified by "CreateDialog" command in code.
If you understand the script a little, it is easily revokable.
The true colors of the clip point is a long and slender dialog (1px).

BTW, I attached v1.6(Max on left, test ver.) that added floating dialog (can resizing).
Does wacom tablet driver's substitute?

thank you. ok, i trying to the support of 2 monitors.

However, because a right edge passes without the cursor stopping, it will become difficult to use.
Even if the area that can be clicked is widened and you click easily.

Though there is a method of using the bottom edge as alternatives.
It doesn't function when there is a taskbar in the usual top...

i attached v1.5.

Sorry for my BAD English.

You can't have any problem if you carry out the following script and become the gray screen!

rollout get_screen_size "" 
(
  label lbl1 "Working!" pos:[13,35] width:180 height:16
  on get_screen_size lbuttondown null do	
  (
    destroydialog get_screen_size
  )
)
CreateDialog get_screen_size (sysInfo.desktopSize.x) sysInfo.desktopSize.y -3 -3 bgcolor: gray fgcolor: white modal: true style:#(#style_border)
