Expected behaviour

When I run the VM I should be able to use my mouse

Actual behaviour

There reaches a point where the host mouse leaves the window and I can't access the rest of the guest screen

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

quickget macos catalina
quickemu --vm macos-catalina.conf

Solution

I actually found the solution (by trying a million things cause I'm a noob. On that note, this should be a PR not an issue since I have the solution but I wouldn't know where to start to actually implement this)
Add
-device usb-mouse
to macos-catalina.sh in the folder next to macos-catalina.conf

Version

I am running version 4.8 on NixOS

Try adding mouse="usb" to the .conf file. Let us know if that works.
