Multiple monitors on Mac


Recommended Posts

[A2].   [B2]

[A1]    [B1]

where:
- A is server, A1 primary monitor, A2 2nd monitor
- B is client B1 primary monitor, B2 2nd monitor

This works almost fine, but sometimes, the mouse do not travel seamlessly from A to B or B to A

There is any configuration consideration that I should take with secondary monitors.

It used to be that we could make a config file and have that interpret it OK based on screen edge and "percentage" transfer on links.  I liked that in Syn 1 Pro a LOT!  Always wished the GUI could accommodate multiple monitors with something like ComputerID.ScreenID  I'm using "." as a common delineator, could use # or something else to help differentiate based on what is used in the code or interpreted as wild cards.
Would just need a way to verify which screen had which ID, maybe a way to display it on those screen similar to Windows' Identify Function?

I think this could be represented in a Config File like this :

section: screens
    CO-SYA02-TB:
        alt = alt
        meta = meta
        shift = shift
        super = super
        ctrl = ctrl
        halfDuplexNumLock = false
        xtestIsXineramaUnaware = false
        halfDuplexCapsLock = false
        halfDuplexScrollLock = false
        switchCorners = none 
        altgr = alt
        screen1name = A
        screen2name = B
        screen3name = C
    KGOLD-SURF:
        alt = alt
        meta = meta
        shift = shift
        super = super
        ctrl = ctrl
        halfDuplexNumLock = false
        xtestIsXineramaUnaware = false
        halfDuplexCapsLock = false
        halfDuplexScrollLock = false
        switchCorners = none 
        altgr = alt
        screen1name = A
end

section: links
    CO-SYA02-TB.B:
        down(0,100) = KGOLD-SURF.A(0,100)
    CO-SYA02-TB.C:
        right(0,100) = KGOLD-SURF.A(0,100)
    KGOLD-SURF.A:
        up(0,100) = CO-SYA02-TB.B(0,100)
        left(0,100) = CO-SYA02-TB.C(0,100)
end

section: options
    heartbeat = 5000
    relativeMouseMoves = true
    clipboardSharing = true
    clipboardSharingSize = 50000
    win32KeepForeground = true
    disableLockToScreen = true
end

Graphically mocked up would look like this:
