Mouse speed with different Screen Resolution/DPI

from Stardock Forums

Dear Supports,

I recently encountered into a mouse speed/position problems for two monitors with different configurations. 

1. I have 2 screens with different screen resolutions and DPI settings and the mouse speed is not consistent when I move the mouse from one to the other -- I am wondering is there a way that Multiplicity can be automatically aware of this or maybe let me set the speed ratio to adjust the mouse speed for "client" machines.

2. Another problem come with the resolution difference is the vertical position of the mouse is not consistent.  Say move from the bottom of one computer will go to the middle of the other computer -- even they have similar physical heights.

 

My primary machine: 3840 x 2160 with DPI 200% - 27 inch

My secondary machine:  1920 x 1080 with DPI 125% - 24 inch 

 

Looking forward to your help!

Best,

Jie

It would be prudent to alter the speed in the mouse properties on the Secondary as MP does not have a mechanism to adjust it.
