    I really enjoyed the fact that you can scroll the map by moving your mouse to the very edge of the screen, but I wasn't happy with the fact that the game didn't lock your mouse into its window if you play the game in windowed mode.

    I wanted to have the best of both worlds, so I came up with this script. It's a good amount of borrowed code from "corrupt", a user on the AutoHotKey forums. I've modified the code a little so that it doesn't go all the way to the top of the window (bar and all), and doesn't go to the very edges of any side of the screen. Also, it's now activated with CapsLock.


    Download: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?zndtnm3wydd

    A readme is included in the download.



    What needs to be added/changed:

    * A better way to activate the window (right now it can be screwed up if you have a folder open named "StarCraft II")

    * Bug fixes/things I haven't realized are wrong yet. :p

    * Code clean up

    Does it include instructions on how to load the script in the download?

    why not just play full screen?
    seems like alot of work for something that would only help a few that accually play it in windowed form.

    For those of us with dual screen setups or debugging maps on the fly, this is obscenely helpful.

    I multitask far too much to play fullscreen. Also, the script wasn't too bad to make. I originally made it just for myself, but I figured I would release it to everyone so that it could help whoever else may need it.

    Also, there is a readme.txt file included in the download.
