Mouse cursor sometimes moves when activating Listary

Steps to Reproduce

Activate Listary using either the ctrl, ctrl global shortcut, or by typing while Windows Explorer is active. This often, but not always, will move the cursor. When using the global shortcut, it moves it above and to the left of the box that appears. When typing in Explorer, it moves it to the box where the text appears. I have tried to identify a consistent way to result in the cursor moving, with little success. If I use “cntl, cntl, cntl” to open the big dialog, then close that, then the next time I use “cntl, cntl” or type in Explorer, it will consistent move. But, it will also move at other times without an obvious reason.

Expected Result

I expect that the mouse cursor should not move.

Actual Result

Sometimes, but not always, the mouse cursor moves.

Windows Version

Windows 11

Additional Information

I never see such behavior on my system.
The cursor is always placed into the new upcoming search field.

Do you mean the mouse cursor or the keyboard cursor? One expects the keyboard cursor to be in the search box. The mouse cursor moving exactly the problem I’m describing.

For me, the mouse cursor doesn’t move at all if I start a search with Ctrl Ctrl

It doesn’t always happen, and I find it difficult to determine exactly what causes it. Something that seems reliable is to open the large search window, close it, move the cursor to another window then open the small search box. The attached video shows the cursor jump to the top left when the small search box appears. That isn’t the only time it happens though, and it happens fairly regularly - maybe a quarter of the time I search with it.
