Search for tools that detect and track mouse movements across multiple displays.
Hey, I faced a similar issue when setting up my 4K monitor as a third display. At first I had two HD screens and kept the 4K at HD to avoid performance problems. The mice felt sluggish on the higher resolution, making movement feel slower. To fix it, I increased mouse sensitivity twice but then had to settle for lower settings on other displays until everything smoothed out.
I’m wondering if there’s software that lets you adjust mouse sensitivity per screen automatically so the movement stays consistent across all resolutions?
I got that, but then you got to constantly press the button which is, lets be honest, not useful. If you got your mouse on 1 screen and want to click something on the other the resolution diff will trow you off. Swapping it manually still wont solve that since you cant press it at the right time when your mouse changes screen. That's why i was wondering if there is any software that can do this.
I understand it can be handled through software, actually quite straightforward using mouse drivers. The key factor is which mouse manufacturer sets this up. This is because they can adjust each monitor's resolution and capture the current mouse location. Windows APIs provide all the necessary tools. With basic conditional logic, they can automatically switch DPI settings for every screen. They can also detect optimal configurations by measuring screen dimensions (available in Windows 8 and later) or let you manage it yourself.
