Forums -> UltraMon™ -> Switching Between Monitors While Gaming. (Primary Locked Games)

I would like to be able to switch between monitors during gaming. You have the hotkey to lock to primary but thats where you run your games.

Would be nice to see if we could get a "lock to secondary" hotkey so we could switch between monitors while playing a game that locks to primary.

Note: the move mouse to next monitor hotkey doesn't work becuase the mouse lock by the game overrides it... hence sticking it back to primary.

Any thoughts ?

Thanks for the suggestion. This is something I'm going to look into for UltraMon 3, probably won't be possible though.

So there is no current way of actually achieving this ?

And what problems do you see that makes you thinking this isn't achievable ?

Although its not possible... i would like to have a look at MouseJail's source cause this would me a reverse of that. Maybe Holding down a hotkey combination allowing you to exit and enter the jail.

Just some thoughts... thanks for your reply btw.

The problem is that games usually get exclusive access to the mouse, that's also why the Move Mouse hotkeys no longer work. I don't know yet if there's a way around this.

I haven't looked into this further, but am pretty sure there's no fix for this.
