Cursr

If you are working with multiple monitors, then you probably noticed that the mouse does not behave properly when switching between displays. Whether you attach a monitor to a laptop or simply add a second monitor, many have noticed that their mouse is noticeably lagging.

Cursr is a tool designed to help address this specific issue and optimize the overall mouse movements.

Following a swift installation, the application can be accessed from the System Tray where you can manage the movements of the mouse. Depending on how you are using the computer, the application allows you to create various setups for different combinations of displays.

In the unfortunate event that you lose control of the mouse, you should use Shift + A + D shortcut to disable the app, as indicated in the management window. As you would expect, the shortcuts are customizable and you can change them as necessary from the Settings.

The idea behind the tool is to optimize mouse movement by creating links or portals between screens with different resolutions. Perhaps the most noticeable effect of using the tool is that the transition between the displays is noticeable faster, regardless of whether they are close or far to each other.

According to the developer, the app was initially designed to solve an issue when the mouse cursor would get stuck on the edges between two screens with different resolutions. While the tool failed its initial goal and didn’t provide a nice user experience, the developer found new ways to optimize the mouse movement.

The app is in continuous development and users are expected to get many new exciting features in the future, the next one announced being a Virtual KVM that allows the use of a single mouse and keyboard for multiple devices.

In the eventuality that your computer setup entails using multiple monitors and would like to optimize the mouse movements when switching to the secondary displays, then perhaps you can consider giving Cursr a try.
