    Mouse jumping when clicking on another monitor


    When I'm playing a video game and click from one monitor back into the main monitor where the game is, frequently, the mouse jumps to the upper left corner of my screen and drags my game's camera with it. It's quite frustrating. I have used different mice, reinstalled the game, but still no fix. Any thoughts?

    :)

    Hi Piistat, my name is Jose, and I would be happy to help.

    The situation you described could have various causes and therefore different solutions. Here are some suggestions that might help you resolve the issue:

    Game Settings:

    Check the game settings related to mouse control.
    Ensure that fullscreen mode is enabled instead of windowed mode, as this could affect mouse behavior when switching between monitors.
    Operating System Configuration:

    In the operating system, check the multiple monitor configuration. Make sure they are set up correctly in relation to the physical layout of your monitors.
    On Windows, you can access multiple display settings by pressing Windows key + P.
    Mouse Drivers:

    Make sure you have the latest mouse drivers installed. Visit the manufacturer's website for your mouse to download and install the latest drivers.
    Third-Party Software:

    If you use third-party software to manage mouse settings or game profiles, check for updates and adjust settings as needed.
    System Updates:

    Ensure that your operating system is up-to-date with the latest updates and security patches.
    Interference from Other Devices:

    Make sure there is no interference from nearby devices such as wireless devices or appliances that could affect the mouse signal.
    Game Support:

    Contact the game's technical support. They may have specific information about this issue and provide solutions or updates addressing the problem.
    Remember to make changes one by one to identify the cause of the problem. If none of these suggestions resolves the issue, it may be helpful to search gaming community forums or reach out directly to the game's technical support for personalized assistance.

    If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are here to help.

    Best regards,
    Jose.

    Hi Jose,

    I have tried all of these and still no fix unfortunately.

    Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 Multi Screen Setup (3 Screens)

    FaronKolbe - The thread is about multi-monitor setup in general and my comment specifically is about using the right Alt key while hovering over an instrument, opening the instrument in a new window with a mouse click, and dragging the instrument to another
    monitor. Both the PFD and MFD can be separated from the virtual cockpit and established in dedicated monitors this way; but the controls don't come with them, which defeats the whole purpose.

    If your experience is different, I would love to hear about it.

    Windows 10 & xBox Companion with multiple monitors

    Agree with the focus issue, but MS should also understand the nature of modern gaming with streaming. The need to continue without loss of focus from the xBox Companion app when using a game controller and taking action with a mouse or keyboard in another
    monitor is something the engineers should figure out.

    Mouse goes off the game screen.

    Try to check if there are any updates to your minecraft.

    Normally, playing Minecraft in fullscreen restricts the mouse pointer to inside the game itself. However, on 1.8.2-pre5, you can move the mouse outside the usual zone, allowing you to click things in another
    window. When you do, however, the game minimizes (for it's not actually designed for windowed fullscreen.)

    If you move the mouse out-of-bounds and back in, you cannot move it out again. You would need to close and open the GUI again for the glitch to repeat itself.

    Unfortunately, I cannot get pictures of this, because Print Screen doesn't capture the mouse. I am uploading a screenshot, but I had to draw in a mouse pointer where mine was.

    STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

    1) Launch Minecraft, switch to fullscreen mode (if not already in fullscreen)

    2) Open a world (doesn't matter whether it's singleplayer or multiplayer)

    3) Open any inventory, chat, or pause the game

    4) Move the mouse pointer onto a secondary monitor. You will see that it can go out-of-bounds.
