Follow doesn't reach edge of screen with 9:16 OBS output

[desertmoose706]

Great script. Very impressive capability and quality.

I can't get it to follow my cursor all the way to the edge of my screen when I've set the OBS screen size to be 9:16 (1080x1920) for recording YT shorts. It makes it near the edge, but then stops and lets the cursor move without scrolling further over, like it thinks its at the edge of the screen. The same applies to all 4 corners of the screen, like its only allowing 80% from the center of the screen for view.

I have a 4K screen at 3840x2160 and the OBS output resolution is 1080x1920 portrait. I have the follow border set to 50 so it follows the cursor immediately. I have follow outside bounds checked and have the transform on the display capture object to scale to outer bounds.

Example

Here you can see the full screen and how far I'd think the zoom box would scroll to if I moved the mouse to the top edge of the screen. E.g. look at the top left corner of that screen preview, then compare to the next image for how far it will scroll over.

Here you can see the mouse cursor moving up near the top left of the capture because it hit some limit of how far it'll let the zoomed view scroll over. It stops following the mouse before the edge of the actual screen. Look right below zoom_time = zoom_speed text. Normally the cursor is center of that view until it hits the "edge"

Settings

I know you recommend Top Left in Alignment, but I had to choose center otherwise it won't follow the cursor at the center of the scrolling view, the cursor is off the view if I pick Top Left.

I should mention that the zoom/sliding view following the cursor will make it to the top and bottom of the screen, but not the left or right edges. maybe 500px from the edge.

Another interesting point is that the distance from the left or right of the screen is bigger with less zoom and smaller with more zoom. So if I set zoom to 5x then I'll maybe 265px from the edge and if its 1.5x then 875px

I may have fixed your issues in my version of the script. The original script did not work for me on Mac OS Sequoia 15.1 on M4 Pro with Retina display. Feel free to try mine: https://github.com/ZakirG/obs-zoom-to-mouse-mac-sequoia

Got it to work by setting Scale X and Scale Y to 2.0.

I didn't need @ZakirG's script, but it did help me figure it out. Thanks @ZakirG 🙏

@desertmoose706 The script is running perfectly fine.You just have to tweak a few settings and the script will run smoothy in your OBS

Based on the your monitor information you provided in the issue, Following settings will work for you keeping your other intial settings same as before

Thanks @BlankSourceCode for creating this awesome script
