Support cursor hovering

[BigfootN]

Hello,

So to start with I hope that this kind of enhancement hasn't been proposed yet.
So, everything is in the title. I would like to know if it would be possible to add the ability to have a trigger a chosen command (like the %{A:command}) but when the cursor is over a certain area of the bar.
I hope I made myself clear enough 😄 , since english is not my mother tongue.

Thank you in advance and keep up the good work 👍

Pretty idea, useful for popups.

FYI, here's a program that someone used to implement 'hot corners' (mouse hover for corners of the screen) that you might work off of to do a hover over screen space thing.

And, as someone pointed out in the original thread , you can also use xdotool to get a similar effect: xdotool behave_screen_edge --quiesce 600 --delay 0 top-left exec /path/to/script.sh

also check wmutils wew: https://github.com/wmutils/opt/blob/master/wew.c

It outputs text when entering/leaving windows, I'm sure you can use it in a script.

@onodera-punpun nice! does lemonbar count as a window for outputting text with wew?
