Do you mean in the same file or different files?

 What exactly would you like the script to do? (try to be detailed and complete)
I can likely get you something right away if its clear.

I think this should be do able in Pythoner. 

 I have find this script and it is working in Pycharm but I don't understand how to use it in the pythoner actor:

from pynput.mouse import Controller

# Initialize mouse controller mouse = Controller()

# Get current position position = mouse.position print(f"Current mouse position: {position}")

# Move mouse relative to current position current_position = mouse.position mouse.move(50, -30) # Move 50 pixels right and 30 pixels up

@jfg

I see. I think this should be do able in Pythoner. 

I'll log the feature request, and add it to my list of projects to investigate.

Hi everyone,

I’m encountering a persistent issue with Isadora 3.2.6 on macOS Monterey:
The MIDI port configuration is not saved after restarting the computer — even when using stable virtual ports like IAC.

Here’s the full setup:

• macOS Monterey

• USB MIDI controller (direct connection or via unpowered USB hub)

• Also tested with macOS IAC virtual ports (enabled in Audio MIDI Setup)

• Preferences file:
  ~/Library/Preferences/Isadora Prefs 3.2.6.izp

• File path verified, correct read/write permissions

• Isadora is properly closed via Isadora > Quit Isadora

• After relaunching Isadora, the MIDI port is reset to "None" in Communications > MIDI Setup

This issue occurs even when using the IAC ports, which are supposed to have stable names and identifiers across sessions.

Questions:

• Is this a known limitation in Isadora?

• Are there any recommendations or workarounds to ensure that the MIDI port configuration is retained across reboots?

• Could there be a hidden preference or a fix in a newer version?

Thank you very much for your insights and support!

Best regards,
Benoît

How would this work?

  Osculator enables you to send keyboard shortcuts (e.g. Cmd+A, Ctrl+Shift+W) to external programmes or the Finder via MIDI or OSC signals. For an Isadora Actor, you only need the ability to send the keyboard shortcut and select the target programme. This would be a very useful way to control Syphon Recorder, for example.

or to move the mouse:

Always happy to help :)

There might already be something for turning xyz coordinates into pitch/roll/yaw it in one of these files:

Not sure if either of these User Actors I just slapped together work because I can't test them right now, but here's a file with Javascript User Actors that might be helpful:

the function ‘virtual Devices (Key Combo, Keycode, Mouse, HID)’ as an actor

 Sorry, I 'm not familiar. How would this work?

Since ‘Osculator’ is no longer being developed and although it still works, I would like to have the function ‘virtual Devices (Key Combo, Keycode, Mouse, HID)’ as an actor in Isadora.

Best regards,
