Popular Post Wilkems 9 Posted January 12, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 12, 2018 I don't know if this falls under the coming features ("Tinker-y" Settings panel) or (Making the window size and elements dynamically adjustable) but I'd really like to see better position control for multi-monitor setups. I have two adjacent monitors to my main screen, but my right one is in portrait mode. So it is taller than the other two. My second computer screen is above my 1st computer's primary display. But I can't drag my mouse directly to it. I have to go to the taller screen to the right since it has the highest point of my setup. However, I'm able to move my cursor down to my main display like normal. This was confirmed when I leveled the right portrait screen with my main screen in Window's Display Settings, and I was able to move the cursor back and forth like normal. I'd like to see an interface like windows display settings, but for synergy where the screens just like like an extra monitor and can be moved around. 9 Link to post Share on other sites
cwestpha 0 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Personally, I use a laptop with a multimonitor desktop/workstation setup. I like putting the laptops on the screens of the desktop/workstation. However, since each machine is seen as a single monitor, I cant then make it so one laptop is under monitor 1 and another is under monitor 2. Link to post Share on other sites
Synergy Team Nick Bolton 407 Posted January 28, 2018 Synergy Team Share Posted January 28, 2018 This feature is planned for 2.2 which is due in about 12 months. For now, you can either wait, or take a refund and use Synergy 1. Link to post Share on other sites
doug-w 1 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Hi Nick, Is there a published roadmap anywhere? I think I'm interested in this feature as well or at least curious of my use case is described here. I have 4 monitors in the form of a T that looks like: PC2 MAC2 MAC 1 PC1 in Synergy I have MAC2 on top with PC1 down, but in actuality going down usually takes me to PC2 and I need to move right to get to PC1. I'd like to be able to layout the monitors in the fashion that going left from MAC2 takes me to PC2, going down from MAC2 takes me to PC1. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Wilkems 9 Posted February 7, 2018 Author Share Posted February 7, 2018 Doug, Very similar use case. Nick said to roll back to the last version, but I don't remember seeing this feature in the last one. Maybe I'll take a look and do that because it's driving me crazy to pull my cursor to my right monitor, in order to get to my top monitor. But it pulls right back the correct way. Hopefully the fix comes sooner than later. Link to post Share on other sites
DatGoodSir 0 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 I am having a very similar issue. It's actually infuriating In my case I have to draw a huge circle with my mouse and make a big swipe left to get my mouse onto my 2nd PC's screen. Good thing I have a big mouse pad .This doesn't feel very seamless to me. Link to post Share on other sites
Joel Walsh 0 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 hey @Nick Bolton is there a chance that a more robust display setup will make it's way into a current version of Synergy ? I have 2 machines with an inverted "T" setup , so 3 displays on the bottom with a large 32" on top. Link to post Share on other sites
J L Reyes 1 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Looking for something similar. Primarily looking to fit a monitor into an L shaped layout to complete the rectangle, At my office, I have 4 monitors: 3 on my Windows computer and the 4th connected to a Mac Mini. At home, I have 3 displays (see attachment) that consists of a 4K monitor and 2 1080 screens. One of the 1080 screens is hooked into a Mac, the other two are connected to a Windows 10 computer. Ideally I want to be able to get to the Mac screen from both the side and top of the monitors beside it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Moddedout 0 Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 It's amazing how this is still an issue when there are a ton of other apps that are not as cool can do this very simple task. When will this become a feature in Synergy? Link to post Share on other sites
