  • Can you just use https://github.com/purcell/disable-mouse as an additional package? – Ryan Apr 11 '18 at 15:53
  • I have tried that. After installing disable-mouse the mouse was still being used by spacemacs. When I restarted spacemacs I saw a line stating: deleting disable-mouse. Mouse was still being used afterwards. @Ryan – Wawrzyniec Pruski Apr 11 '18 at 17:33
  • add it to `dotspacemacs-additional-packages` and make sure you have `(global-disable-mouse-mode)` in your configuration. – Ryan Apr 11 '18 at 17:50
  • Where do I put (global-disable-mouse-mode), which file and what section? @Ryan – Wawrzyniec Pruski Apr 11 '18 at 18:00

Add the following to your dotspacemacs-additional-packages:

dotspacemacs-additional-packages '(
   disable-mouse
)

And put the following in the dotspacemacs/user-config section of your .spacemacs file:

(global-disable-mouse-mode)

That should disable the mouse for everything in Emacs.

  • I tried that on two different machines, mouse still works :( – Wawrzyniec Pruski Apr 11 '18 at 20:29

    In the terminal (`emacs -nw`), I managed to do the trick by setting `(xterm-mouse-mode -1)` _inside_ `dotspacemacs/user-config`. – Jir Sep 19 '18 at 16:02
  • @Ryan I have tried the above but mouse still works, something else must be missing or I'm doing something wrong. – Wawrzyniec Pruski Oct 25 '18 at 16:59
  • This finally worked for me: ```(defun dotspacemacs/user-config () (xterm-mouse-mode 0) )``` I got this from: https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/21540/how-to-disable-mouse-in-spacemacs – Wawrzyniec Pruski Jan 19 '23 at 15:01
