Two monitors, mouse broadcast covers only 1/4 of main screen

I have two monitors; four games on mon2, main game on mon1. When mouse broadcasting the four windows broadcast correctly but only when the mouse is in the upper left 1/4 of the main screen, duplicating the dimensions of the smaller windows. When I move the mouse to the other three quadrants it pulls the mouse off the screen for the other four games.

How do I tell broadcasting that the main monitor is fullscreen?

Also, is there a boolean error in the Window Layout - Regions tab? When I use the wizard to set Swapping to False, the Window Layout - Regions tab says Disable Swapping : False, meaning Swap.

In the main editing section for your Window Layout is "Use Instant Swapping (synchronizes game resolutions)". You have it unchecked. This means that ISBoxer is not synchronizing the game's resolutions, the game is setting each window's resolution independently to the size of the window. Mouse broadcasting is using absolute positioning without scaling by default.

If you do not want to synchronize the resolution, your only other option is to hope that it is accurate with scaling. The scaling option is a drop-down box in your Repeater Profile. It is not likely to be accurate because the game will inevitably have different things in different parts of the screen, at different sizes due to the resolution difference.

Also, is there a boolean error in the Window Layout - Regions tab? When I use the wizard to set Swapping to False, the Window Layout - Regions tab says Disable Swapping : False, meaning Swap.

No. This option sets the Window Layout's global Swapping option to Never. The per-region Swapping setting is left at default.

What I would do, personally, is set up dxNothing with a Full Screen Stacked layout and Video FX. You'd have perfect mouse broadcasting because they would be the same resolution, and you could set up high quality views of (or from) each window however you like them on your second monitor.

Thanks, Lax.

I'm going to have to learn your global vs local gotchas I guess. Clicking on Windows Layouts --> (my set) and looking at the General tab I see "Use Instant..." as checked. So I ran the wizard again, turned on both Instant Swapping and Swapping, with Cross Swapping true and now the check box mentioned above is off. A part of my intuitive brain area just died. I'll figure it out, but at least that issue is fixed.

Also, noob question; What's the preferred method of shutting down the games. Is there a button/right click/shortcut I'm missing?

Edit: Oh, and can I just say, though I had understood the need for the Instant Swapping for the resolution synch, your full explanation of what's no doubt a very common and tedious-for-you error earned you a big kudos point.

Just exit the games as usual. I usually turn mouse repeat on, click my portrait so everyone gets a target, hit escape twice to bring up the game menu, then click exit. You can also turn repeat on and type '/camp'. Thinking about it, my way is a pita, so I may make a macro and bind it to a key to make exiting faster.
