Cursor Regions preset
This preset ships inside InputConfig, free on the Mac App Store. You don't have to make an account, there are no subscriptions, and nothing is locked. Optimized for Apple silicon.
Cursor Regions has no controller rows at all. Its inputs are three areas of the screen: the pointer entering the top-left corner opens Mission Control, the top-right corner opens Spotlight, and the bottom-right corner opens Launchpad. Any pointer works, a mouse, a trackpad, a head pointer or a controller stick, which makes it a hot-corners setup that follows the preset instead of a system setting.
No controller needed: the inputs are areas of the screen, and moving the pointer into one fires it.
Where it is in the app
It ships in the Feature Showcases folder of the sidebar. Activate it, or press Edit to see every row. The file below is the same preset, inactive and ungrouped.
Every binding
| Input | Sends | Options | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cursor region | Mission Control | Pointer in the top-left corner: Mission Control | |
| Cursor region | Spotlight Search | Pointer in the top-right corner: Spotlight | |
| Cursor region | Launchpad | Pointer in the bottom-right corner: Launchpad |
3 rows. Button names are the Xbox / PlayStation pair the editor shows; a Switch Pro Controller fires by position. Options are the row settings that differ from the defaults.
Notes
- Where the regions are. They belong to the preset and are drawn on the screen map in the Live Visualizer while it is selected.
- Hard to reach. Make a corner larger, or add regions along an edge for more actions.
- Accidental triggers. A region fires on entry, so keep it small enough that ordinary pointer travel does not cross it.
Small regions in the corners fire when you mean them to and stay out of the way otherwise.
