View Full Version : Cursor jumps to a different window randomly

I tried to search the forums for an answer to this one, but doesn't seem like anyone else has reported similar problems.

I 5 box on a single computer using keyclone to broadcast my keypresses to all 5 wows. Use a microsoft comfort curve keyboard, a G5 gaming mouse, a 22 inch monitor for 4 of the toons and a 19 inch one for the tank/main. I have setup the keyclone maximiser accordingly.

Now occasionally, about once a minute my mouse cursor seems to jump from my main window to a different wow window. This always seems to be the region labelled as region2 on my setup, or the top right corner of the bigger monitor. Normally this would not actually cause much distress, but if I happen to be using my mouse to run, or look around the screen turns a full 180 degrees and suddenly I am facing the opposite direction.

Does anyone have any idea how to stop this from happening? Could getting another 22 inch monitor and running them in horizontal span mode, instead of dual view help some?

In the general options there is focus follows mouse. so when your using maximizer when the cursor is moved over another wow window it will activate that wow. Check to see if that is not on.

Oldin, I have the same thing happening.

And I do not have the "focus follow mouse" on.

it's not 'focus follows mouse'.

it's 'pass mouse clicks'... make sure to UNCHECK it. (i really should remove it)

sorry to be offtopic, but a quick question for keyclone, or any1 really.

What is it that makes what ever you mouse over, your new screen? Is there an option for it in keyclone, or is there some program that does it? I thought I remembered something about there being a microsoft program that did it.

"pass mouse clicks" is unchecked also

No biggie to me, I just assume it's the nature of the beast and chit happens... no worries

Pass mouse clicks and Focus Follows mouse are both off. Will need to double check those then, but I am pretty sure I have never used pass mouse clicks, and I didn't like Focus Follows mouse at all when I tried it.

Ok, pass mouse clicks and focus follows mouse were both off. However, turning auto detect windows titled World of Warcraft off seems to have helped to remove the mouse twitching. Seems like a possible bug.
