   You can use modified version of the command (here is how to add the command to CopyQ):

   [Command]
   Command="
       copyq:
       if (visible())
           hide()
       else
           showAt()"
   GlobalShortcut=ctrl+shift+a
   Icon=\xf022
   IsGlobalShortcut=true
   Name=Show main window under mouse cursor

   Just change the Global Shortcut of the new command after you add it.

   Thank you for reporting. This affects CopyQ 14.

   Ditto basically behaves that way, but location depends on its configuration.

   I suggest retitling this to:

   No built-in command to toggle main window displaying under/around mouse pointer

   This makes sense. Let me just change the default behavior to also hide the window with "Show main window under mouse cursor". This will be available in the next release.
