I have a strange setup. I have 2 monitors, one Ultra Wide IPS and 1 16:9 144Hz. DisplayFusion and triggers has allowed me to setup tasks in order to get games to start on the proper monitor. Games like Counter-strike launch on the 144Hz and visually-appealing games launch on the IPS. Because the IPS is 2560x1080 it was causing issues when a game doesn't launch in that resolution, and it would push the stuff on my right monitor to the right when it wasn't at native resolution. I fixed that by changing the way Windows sees my monitors. Windows now thinks that my setup is like this

[M2][M1]

whereas the actual, physical setup is like this

[M1][M2]

I can get it to behave intuitively by using DisplayFusion's mouse wrapper, but this bothers me because if I move left on M1 in real life the mouse appears way off to my physical right on the very edge of M2. Can I block the movement between the

M1 is 60Hz 21:9 IPS
M2 is 144Hz 16:9

A visualization of what I hope to achieve. Currently getting movement between green/blue using DisplayFusion's mouse wrapper.

There isn't, unfortunately. I have put this on our feature request list though, so we'll be sure to let you know if/when we're able to implement something like that.

At the moment, the only workaround I can think of would be to use the "Lock/Unlock Mouse Cursor to Current Monitor" function in DF to lock the mouse cursor to the monitor, then use the "Move Mouse Cursor to Next Monitor" function to swap the cursor between monitors. Not sure how practical that will be for your workflow, but thought I'd offer it as an alternative anyways :)

Alright. Thank you for the reply. The mouse lock function works to stop the left > far right jump, but of course it blocks me from going left > right where the monitors actually touch. Maybe I can find out a way to get some other program to hit the DF function hotkey when I reach a certain point on the left side of my monitor, and turn off the function when I go to the right.

EDIT: I see there is a scripted option on the Function tab. I know nothing about how to code (anything) but do you think it would be possible to write a script to accomplish blocking the mouse movement automatically on the left side of M1 and re-enabling the mouse movement on the right side of M1? Or can the script function not run scripts based off mouse location?

The Scripted Functions wouldn't be able to do that, no. Manipulating the mouse movement requires mouse hooks which aren't really possible with Scripted Functions, sorry :(
