Glad to hear that works for you too! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mousemonitorescapespeed-problem/?ID=91484ed6-dbdd-4701-849c-2b38e0ef2df1#4 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 18:26:12 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mousemonitorescapespeed-problem/?ID=91484ed6-dbdd-4701-849c-2b38e0ef2df1#4 DisplayFusion I think I've solved it. Think, because I've only tested it for a few hours so far.

MouseMonitotEscapeSpeed exists not only in

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ImmersiveShell\EdgeUi

but also in

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Palen\Desktop
Computer\HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-19\Control Panel\Desktop
Computer\HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-20\Control Panel\Desktop

(And two more really long HKEY_USERS numbers)

After changing it in all these places, it works fine again! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mousemonitorescapespeed-problem/?ID=91484ed6-dbdd-4701-849c-2b38e0ef2df1#3 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 01:58:33 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mousemonitorescapespeed-problem/?ID=91484ed6-dbdd-4701-849c-2b38e0ef2df1#3 DisplayFusion I've not run any games for several days and still see the problem happening.

MouseMonitorEscapeSpeed is set to 1 and while that used to work, since I got the new monitor it just....doesn't.

I'm going to run without DisplayFusion for a couple of days and see if that makes any difference.

At least as a bonus, I can now get TrueLaunchBar on the second screen taskbar ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mousemonitorescapespeed-problem/?ID=91484ed6-dbdd-4701-849c-2b38e0ef2df1#2 Wed, 11 Feb 2015 20:03:13 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mousemonitorescapespeed-problem/?ID=91484ed6-dbdd-4701-849c-2b38e0ef2df1#2 DisplayFusion What do you have MouseMonitorEscapeSpeed set to, and what does it change to when it breaks again?

I haven't been able to pinpoint what makes it happen. It's not just limited to DisplayFusion, as I've seen other complaints about it around the web, but I suspect that it has something to do with the work area changing, which happens when the DisplayFusion taskbars reload. That would also explain why toggling the Windows taskbar on and off again fixes it, as it would update the work area.

I ended up setting my MouseMonitorEscapeSpeed value to 1, and haven't had any issues since then. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mousemonitorescapespeed-problem/?ID=91484ed6-dbdd-4701-849c-2b38e0ef2df1 Tue, 10 Feb 2015 09:33:58 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/mousemonitorescapespeed-problem/?ID=91484ed6-dbdd-4701-849c-2b38e0ef2df1 DisplayFusion I'm not _sure_ yet if this is DisplayFusion causing problems or not, but since I got a new monitor, it seems that MouseMonitorEscapeSpeed gets reactivated all the time.

To clarify: I don't want the mouse pointer to get stuck between windows at all, but the only way to get around it briefly now is to:

1) Select properties on the taskbar,

2) Check 'Show taskbar on all displays" and hit apply

3) Uncheck it, and hit apply again.

This did not happen with my previous monitor. I ran 2* 1920x1200 back then, now I run a 2560x1080 + one 1920x1200.

I have MouseMonitorEscapeSpeed entered in the registry and it worked fine before. I don't know why it keeps re-applying itself now, frequently. We're talking a couple of times per hour doing usual work.

anyone else seeing this? I'm trying to figure out what re-triggers it. So far it seems to happen in relation to running Starbound and Zoom Player (One runs in full screen windowed, the other in full screen), but it's all guesswork at this point. ]]>
