sometimes when i am doing anything that i click and start dragging an item, or window, randomly another window will start moving all over the place. it has happened for about 2 weeks now, me and several corp mates have this issue. Im on a fresh install of eve after the patch corrupted my folder.

i tried clearing my cache even though im on a fresh install, i have the "window snap to" disabled, and enabled no difference, it randomly moves windows still.

Do you have multiple clients running on one pc?

I have the same issue as do my corpmates while running multiple clients,

it occurs something like this:


click on overview on client A and and do something > target carebear etc

click on client b and do stuff > jam carebear etc

click anywhere on client A again, last clicked window immediately moves to the cursor position, in this case the overview

this error only happens infrequently so is hard to reproduce but is very annoying

it happens with single client and multiple clients open, i cant seem to reproduce it when i want to, but when i dont want it to happen it does. like randomly my overview will go off the screen to the right and the only way to get it back is to go full screen and drag it back to the center of the screen and go back to windowed mode.

Also, this bug moves pinned windows as well.
