Feature Request: Mouse hover should not change the index of the current selected tab in the cycle

If I press alt - tab and keep holding alt and then tab to cycle between the tabs, a mouse hover changes the cycle index witch is a different behavior from the normal alt tab menu.

Hovering over an item in the menu should not change the index of the selected item. It makes sense for them to be clickable and have a hover effect, but making it change the selected item makes it terrible to use.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Need to know few things.

  1. Windows 10 or 11? Also need its full version and OS Build number. Use Winver.exe to get these numbers.
  2. AltTabby version installed.

    Thank you,

Yes please let me toggle this in the settings, I'm going INSANE from me moving my mouse by 0.00001cm and switching to a random tab. I can't describe how angry I got at one point.

Like I made an account just to make this comment.
