Throw mouse pointer to new focused windows

[vinipsmaker]

Hi, it'd be nice to have an option that throws mouse pointer to the newly focused windows. I'm new to awesome (and lua) and my attempt seems to be broken:

awful.key({ modkey,           }, "Tab",
   function (c)
      local filters = {
         cyclefocus.filters.same_screen,
         cyclefocus.filters.common_tag,
         function (c)
            return c.instance ~= c.screen.quakeconsole.name
         end,
      }
      cyclefocus.cycle({modifier="Super_L", cycle_filters = filters})
      --awful.client.focus.history.previous()
      if client.focus then
         client.focus:raise()
         local npos = client.focus:geometry()
         npos.x = npos.x + npos.width / 2
         npos.y = npos.y + npos.height / 2
         mouse.coords(npos)
      end
   end,
   {description = "go back", group = "client"}),

Have you found a solution?
(not looked into it really yet, maybe you have something already)

Nope.

I think this would need a callback/hook to be called in the end, where you would do this then.

Have some prototype that works with:

    awful.key({ modkey,           }, "Tab",
       function (c)
          local filters = {
             cyclefocus.filters.same_screen,
             cyclefocus.filters.common_tag,
          }
          local raise_client = function (c)
              -- cyclefocus.raise_client_without_focus(c)
              c:raise()
              local npos = c:geometry()
              npos.x = npos.x + npos.width / 2
              npos.y = npos.y + npos.height / 2
              mouse.coords(npos)
          end
          cyclefocus.cycle({modifier="Super_L", cycle_filters=filters, raise_client=raise_client})
          --awful.client.focus.history.previous()
       end,
       {description = "go back", group = "client"}),

Will clean it up and push it.

Please try #28.

btw: you could/should use cyclefocus.key instead of awful.key probably.
Not sure about the details currently anymore, but it handles e.g. ISO_Left_Tab also.

Working beautifully. Thank you.

Great, you're welcome.
