Mouse Without Borders Not Working With Multiple Monitors

Anonymous

I have a second monitor set up to the left of my laptop. The display is set to extend. But now I want to use Mouse Without Borders with my SP3. If I unplug the monitor, or set the display to something other than extend it works fine. But otherwise, the mouse just hits the edge of the monitor and stays there. How can I fix this? (Note: I can go from the SP3 to the laptop's monitor, just not the other way around.)

How can I fix this?

Go the other direction.   And then in Screen Resolution drag the icons into the right order so you can move the pointer continuously the way you want.

MWB doesn't have anything to do with this.  Unless you are using its  Block mouse at screen corners  option?  Oh.  I see another one which you might need if you have the wrong configuration:  Wrap Mouse.  And WTH is "Easy Mouse"?  Whatever that is might be "Disabled".   <eg>

    "Go the other direction."  Already tried that, doesn't work. No, I don't have Block Mouse enabled. And yes, I have Wrap Mouse enabled. I'll try Easy Mouse ASAP.

    Perhaps it's something with my monitor. The app you suggested does the exact same thing.

    Hi,

    I can't answer your question BUT I want to make a suggestion.

    I, personally, prefer using another free tool called "Share Mouse" because I find it much easier and better to use. As long as you're not using it as a "Power User" it's free.

    In case you want to have a look:
