[CLIENT] Mac- "Hot Corners"

Logger8s·1/13/2017, 11:01:14 PM·9 votes·3,157 views

Since the 7.1 patch, my mac book pro, Maverick, has started to (it did not before, now it does it all of the time) use my hot corners all of the time while in the League Client in game. "Hot Corners" are corners of the screen that perform a certain function when the mouse is dragged to that corner. For example, I have two corners set: one to shut off my screen and one to display all of my windows that I have open. Before patch 7.1, while in client, I could move my mouse to both of my corners that I had set and not have my screen shut off or every application I have open spread before me. After patch 7.1, the client no longer blocks Hot Corners on my computer and my screen would shut off or the client would be pushed to the side depending on what corner I used.

Since I use the sides and corners of my screen to move my field of vision while in game, this issue caused me to be unable to play my entire first game since patch 7.1. Should any Mac player (at least using Maverick) use Hot Corners, this will present a problem for them until it is either patched or every player removes Hot Corners from their personal computers.

It fucks up my entire game.

Are you receiving frame drops as well?

Hello there, i wrote a script to automate the change of hot corners. just open script editor and paste the code.

property theSavedValues : {"Application Windows", "-", "-", "Mission Control"} -- change values as you wish

tell application "System Preferences" activate set current pane to pane id "com.apple.preference.expose" tell application "System Events" tell window "Mission Control" of process "System Preferences" delay 1 click button "Hot Corners…" tell sheet 1 tell group 1 set theCurrentValues to value of pop up buttons if theCurrentValues is {"-", "-", "-", "-"} then repeat with i from 1 to 4 set thisValue to item i of theSavedValues tell pop up button i click click menu item thisValue of menu 1 end tell end repeat else copy theCurrentValues to theSavedValues repeat with i from 1 to 4 tell pop up button i click click last menu item of menu 1 end tell end repeat end if end tell click button "OK" end tell end tell end tell quit end tell
