    This is another Mouse and Video Game help/request post.

    When inside a video game and you have multiple monitors, when you push the mouse to the side of the screen to scroll around the mouse leaves the VM and goes to onto the next desktop.

    The VM doesn't lose focus (unless you click on the desktop) but it prevents scrolling around the map (League of Legends is what Im playing, but I suspect Star Craft 2 and other RTS would suffer). If you dedicate the mouse to the VM the cursor can't leave the VM and you can scroll around so its not like this is a huge massive thing at the moment.

    But it would be really nice if there was an option to trap the cursor inside the VM when full screen, I don't know if that was the intention but it docent work if theres auxiliary monitors attached. The same problem happens even if you select "Use all desktops in full screen" the cursor jumps ship out of the full screen game.

    If I boot into Windows and do this directly the cursor doesn't leave the full screen game.

    Did any of that make sense?

    What OS are you using? Mac OS 10.7?
