Multiplicity Clicking Glitch

from Stardock Forums

Hello,

My Multiplicity installation has been running into an error; whenever I move to the secondary display and click the mouse (either down or up), the mouse "jumps" up about an inch or so on the screen. For example, if I click the mouse once - mouse down, mouse up - it jumps two inches straight up. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Multiplicity on both computers, and this problem consistently returns.

What can I do about this? Is this a problem other people have run into? I have tried to search for this, but cannot find anything on the topic.

What OS is your computer running on both ends?

Also what monitor configuration do you have and what dpi are the monitors set to?

Both computers are running Windows 10 and are fully updated. The primary computer is running a two monitor set up (1920 x 1080 on the right, 1680 x 1050 on the left), and the secondary monitor (seamless to the left) is running 1920 x 1080. Now that you've mentioned that, I've tried switching the seamless control boundary; if the secondary computer is accessed from the primary computer's first monitor (same resolutions), no clicking errors happen, but if the secondary computer is accessed from the primary computer's second monitor (different resolutions) clicking errors happen.

This does fix the problem, mostly. Thank you very much! If there's any way to make that not happen without changing the boundary location, that would be good to know, but until then I can at least control the computers without the glitch.

I have a similar glitch.  Running Whendoze 8.1 with three monitors on the primary [from left to right] 1920x1200 - 3840x2160 - 3840x2160.  My secondary computer is above with two monitors [from left to right] 1680x1050 - 1920-1080.  When moving up from my center monitor, any mouse button press causes a jump to the left, as does the button release.  any movement from either left or right monitor to the upper monitors, everything works perfectly.  This problem even occurs when using a hot key to switch computers.
