I went to the demo, saw the button, pushed it, got confused, and finally read the description of what exactly the plugin was supposed to do, at which point I went back to the demo and noticed the little arrow.
As an unprimed user, I did not even see that arrow. However, you could always make it larger and more contrasting.
- starwed 15y agoIt doesn't help that the arrow only appears once you move the cursor -- when the page starts up, it's not there.
- dspillett 15y agoThat might not be fixable. IIRC you can't directly poll for the pointer's position so the first time you have any clue is the first mouse-move (or button press) event you see once the user starts doing something after your event hooks are in place.

- jamesmoss 15y agoI did exactly the same thing. I can't see this being a useful plugin as it stands and I've never seen something like this in any UI either. Something like a shake or highlight would work better.
- OriginalSyn 15y agoI could see it being useful in a html/javascript based game or something.
