Exit and Temporary Exit

Exit

You can press Esc to exit the cursor mode at any time.

Release to Exit

If you entered a cursor mode by holding a shortcut, you can also release the shortcut keys to exit the mode. This allows you to quickly return to normal cursor control without needing to press Esc every time.

For example, if the shortcut is Control + Option + Command + C, you can

1. hold Control + Option + Command + C to enter the mode.
2. hold at least one of them, for example, Control, to stay in the mode.
3. and release all of them to exit the mode.

Left and Right Modifier Keys

The app is able to detect the left and right modifier keys, so you can still use the modifiers from the other hand to perform actions in the mode. For example, you can use the right Command key to activate the cursor claw, while using the left Command key to control the cursor.

If you are in the middle of quick jump, the cursor mode will stay on even if you release the shortcut keys. This is to ensure that you can still use the quick jump feature without interruption. After releasing Space, the app will move the cursor accordingly and automatically exit the cursor mode.

Temporary Exit

Keys like Esc, Tab, Enter, Space, etc. are essential for keyboard navigation on macOS. When you need to use these keys directly, you can temporarily exit cursor mode by holding Esc or ~. This lets you access their normal functions without completely leaving cursor mode.

You may also take advantage of it to type while the claw machine is active.
