View Full Version : [ISBoxer] ISBOXER: Extended Desktop and xy coordinates on broadcast.

So I've been updating a setup where I did not have an issue on a single display which I believe explains the root cause (extended display) causing isboxer to miscalculate the mouse broadcast. This is an annoying issue that didn't exist prior when I wasn't using an extended desktop.

Extended Desktop
Regions:
_________
|2,3 | 1 1|
|4,5 | 1 1|
_________

Basically, if the master window has the cursor at 960, 540 (1920, 1080, center) then the slaves will have the cursor at the isboxer translated coordinates (bottom right, off screen).

Now, I have the resolutions all set to 1920,1080 but is there a chance that isboxer is rendering these things relative to the isboxer slave settings? Does it see 960,540 literally?

I think I had this issue a long time ago when I was 5 boxing. Not sure if this is a genuine issue, just annoying and probably means I will go back to a single display if it cannot be resolved.

If you have Instant Swapping disabled in your Window Layout then your resolutions are not synced up
regardless of what they're set as in-game.

Ahh I see.

I prefer the Fkey swap myself as having it swap on click is confusing for me.

That's too bad. I guess its single monitor then.

Take a look at http://isboxer.com/wiki/Window_layout_wizard and MiRai's video linked there. Instant Swapping mostly just sets the resolutions the same, thereby enabling instant swapping. If you don't want swapping to occur on mouse clicks into other regions, then change "Swap hot character to main region" to "never".

Interesting. I have that checkbox enabled and they still do not sync properly.

The games show the resolution as though it is really 960x540. I recall at one point when doing this the 1920x1080 would be resized to the smaller window on the slaves which made the game pixelated on the slaves.

This doesn't look pixelated at all. The lines look sharp. I've checked that it was set to window and not window (fullscreen) nor fullscreen. All using 1920x1080.

It's odd.

Without seeing your configuration, everyone has to make assumptions about your Window Layout. HOWTO: Share your configuration for better support (http://isboxer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=13).
