Created attachment 189494 [details] Image of my monitor config SUMMARY I have a 3 monitor setup As shown in the attachment. When using this configuration i cannot move from monitor A to monitor C or vice versa. If I want to get from A to C I must first go down to B and then over to C and to where i want to be on that monitor. I understand this is caused by the monitors not being touching in the config but this is necessary to ensure movements between A and B translate to how the monitors are positioned on my desk. I would love an option to be able to effectively "teleport" my mouse across the gap between A and C instead of having to use B as my highway between those monitors. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. configure a multi-monitor (probably has to be min 3 monitors) with two aligned but not touching such that there is a valid configuration but at least 2 of the monitors are not touching in the config. 2. Try to move directly between the two not touching monitors and observe that the mouse is locked from traversing this void. OBSERVED RESULT Mouse cannot traverse any gaps between monitors even if they are otherwise aligned. Ex a gap in X even if the monitors are on the same Y plane just not touching EXPECTED RESULT Ideally would be able to have the mouse traverse this gap to increase efficiency and ease of use.
