Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Can I change mouse/monitor relationship?

Hi,

I would like to know if it's possible to change the order of the mouse movement in relation to the monitors. I have 3 monitors: one a large one in the center and a smaller one on the ends. The desktop is spread across all three. My problem is that if I move the mouse all the way to the left, it stops at the left side of the center monitor. If I want to move the mouse to the left monitor, I have to move it all the way to the right, thru the monitor on the right and then it will go to the left monitor.

I would like it to work in a logical manner where if the mouse is on the center monitor I can move it to the left to go to the left monitor or right to go to the right monitor. It's very annoying to have to scroll across three monitors to get to the one that is just to the left.

Following I have pasted the info from UltraMon's 'About' cache...

Adjusting the monitor arrangement will fix this, to do this go to UltraMon menu > Display Settings, then adjust the monitor arrangement so that it matches the physical arrangement of the monitors on your desk.

Thanks, it worked. I didn't realize that the graphic part of 'Display Settings' was simple drag 'n drop.
