Jeff Anderson 0 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Hi, really enjoting Synergy so far, except for one mild irritation. Server machine: Mac OS 10.12Client machine: Ubuntu Linux 16.10 or 17.04Any machine I use as a client I find that as I move the mouse back and forth, up and down, etc, the mouse cursor drifts too far to the left and eventually hits the edge of the screen. It's like a left motion of the mouse tracks faster on screen, than a right motion. Any way to calibrate this? I've tried both the latest GA release, 1.8.X as well as the 1.9 RC release - same issues. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 @Jeff Anderson Please try v1.9.0 from this link. Let us know how it goes. Link to post Share on other sites
Jeff Anderson 0 Posted May 11, 2017 Author Share Posted May 11, 2017 Hi Paul, thanks for the response. I was afraid someone would suggest that, proving that he/she *did not* read my entire post. If you do, you will see that I have found the same to be true both in the 1.8.X GA release and the 1.9.0 RC3. I'm using it already. To be as clear as possible, I find that when I move the mouse down and to the left, say, on about a 45-degree line/angle, the mouse cursor on the remote screen moves only left - not down at all. When moving the mouse up to the right, on a 45-degree line/angle, the mouse cursor only moves upwards, not to the right at all. It's an odd one. Best regards. Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Are you moving it fast? Have you tried moving it slower just to check if it is somewhat slow in picking up the movements while on the client machine? Link to post Share on other sites
asorgejr 0 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Hi there, I am experiencing the same issue. If I move my mouse in small circles on the client desktop, the cursor will consistently track up and to the left until it hits the corner of the screen. There is a definite motion bias in those two directions making the client computer difficult to navigate. Server: macOS Sierra (10.12.4) running Synergy 1.9.0 RC3 Client: Windows 10 Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Suarez 107 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Have you tried switching the Windows machine to be the server? Also, what are their monitor sizes?resolution? Link to post Share on other sites
Jeff Anderson 0 Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 Hi all, I don't use a Windows server or client, so I can't speak to whether it happens in either case. I can move the mouse fast or slow, and it still happens - it's just more noticeable when working fast. In my case I am using high resolutions, 2560x1440 on the server, and 1920x1080 on the client.

Paul Suarez 107 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Hi @Jeff Anderson. I tried to do more research on this and found out that there's an existing open issue on GitHub about this. Our developers are still looking for ways to add the feature of recognizing individual screen size and resolution. Please bear with us as we try to make Synergy even better for everyone.

I use a wireless Apple keyboard which does not pair with PC's as far as I know, so I wouldn't be able to run a server on Windows unfortunately. As far as resolution is concerned, both the server and the client are running 1920x1080. Link to post Share on other sites
