Frozy 0 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Hello, I would like to know if it's possible to disable the function to auto-switch to the secondary monitor (client) when dragging mouse on the edge of the screen. When playing a game in fullscreen mode, if I go to close to the edge, it automatically alt+tab and switch to the other monitor. Thank you! Link to post Share on other sites

If Synergy 1, go to Configure Server, Advanced Settings, and turn on dead corners. Or, better yet, make a hotkey to lock the mouse to the current system when pressed.

ThePravus 0 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I think by default, scroll lock locks cursor to current screen. I use this when I am gaming. Link to post Share on other sites
KoRnBoy82 0 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Hi, I was checking this old post. For me it do not work. I did an hotkey that switches to the other computer and then send the key scroll lock to lock the mouse in the other computer and it do not work. I even tried dead corners ans it also do not work. Is there another way like maybe using a configuration file and placing a really big value for the Switch After Waiting section? Link to post Share on other sites
ayalaresearch 0 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Wow, that screen shot was really helpful. I had not figured out how to get hotkeys working. Now I can lock to one screen or the other, one of my main desired features. Link to post Share on other sites

KoRnBoy82 0 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 I remade them once the server was stopped and it now works... Link to post Share on other sites
ayalaresearch 0 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 This is the hotkey set up I just tried. I can toggle between locking to whatever screen my cursor/mouse is currently on. I could not figure out how dead corners worked. I've include a screen shot of the hotkey setting, I used the Escape key, as my left hand is always near it and it is generally not a key that will mess anything up. Also, below that is my advanced server settings. I did mess with switch after waiting and switch on double tap, which is banging the cursor on that edge twice within the designated number of milliseconds, but I prefer the toggle key approach.

ayalaresearch 0 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 I'm glad you got this working. I've been using Synergy for about 2 years, I only just figured this out. I guess I didn't play around with it enough. I like the lock to screen toggle. Much more deliberate, but easy to switch off and on. Link to post Share on other sites
ayalaresearch 0 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 On a different note, some time my scrolling function disappears on my client machine and I have to flick back to the sever screen to get it working again. Not sure what that's all about. Link to post Share on other sites
ayalaresearch 0 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Quick note, I didn't realize how often I use Escape to cancel a command in several programs, changed the hotkey to ALT-` that's the lowercase values for the `~ key just above the TAB key on my keyboard. Link to post Share on other sites
