• Restores saved position with a keyboard shortcut Alt+Z

How it works?

1. Akemito monitors your mouse cursor position
2. When the cursor remains still for the specified time 1 second, it prepares to save the position
3. Once the cursor moves after being still, the position is saved
4. Press Alt+Z at any time to restore the cursor to the saved position

Troubleshooting

My shortcut isn't working

Make sure no other application is capturing the same keyboard shortcut.
