I recently started using a Logitech Pebble Bluetooth mouse with my Hyundai HyTab Pro 10LA1 tablet, and it's a huge improvement over the touch interface. But there are a few annoyances I'd like to try to eliminate that are coming from the mouse interface in Android 10 itself (not caused by the mouse, although they only occur when using the mouse).
The most annoying thing is the creation of drag shadows, especially when I unintentionally select and start to drag a link by inadvertently moving the mouse a tiny amount while clicking on a link. In many cases, but far from all of them, if I immediately stop moving the mouse when I see the shadow appear, I can make the shadow go away by releasing the mouse key and then clicking on the shadow.
However, the shadow fairly frequently fails to respond to the click and becomes just about permanent on the screen (the only way I've found to get rid of a shadow once it's been created is to restart the tablet). When I say "permanent", I mean it stays there right in the location it was created, and I can't move it or change it in any way. Even if I switch to a different app than I was using when the shadow was created, it's still there in the same relative on-screen position in the other app. It also remains in place if I start a new app or switch to the home screen.
While these drag shadows are partially transparent, they're solid enough to interfere with being able to correctly see what's behind them, and even if they're not in the way of anything important, they're a huge pain in the ass (thank goodness I can click through the shadow to activate the link behind it). I've looked through all the settings on the tablet and have spent quite a bit of time searching with various carefully contrived search queries to absolutely no avail. The only links the searches turn up are to articles regarding how to programmatically control drag shadows when coding an app.
If anybody here is aware of any way to modify drag shadows in the OS itself (without writing a new app to do it), I'd really appreciate hearing about it. Even if I could just set the shadow transparency to near 100%, it would solve my problem.
