Seamless Mode Support for One Monitor

How would I enable desktop flipping / panning

I have one monitor on my primary pc and two headless secondaries. I do own dummy hdmi plugs that can fool secondary display adapters into thinking they have monitors plugged in if needed (they are not currently installed)

In this configuration KVM mode works

What I expected / would like in seamless mode, is when the cursor goes off screen or I press a hotkey, the primary desktop display flips or pans to the chosen secondary.

At a minimum this would be like KVM mode where switching PCs would be triggered by moving cursor to/past edge and it auto-switches to the correct secondary instead of using sidebar or main multiplicity screen.

Thanks for any help/ideas.

The this could conflict with how actual 'Seamless' functions. For example, I have a Seamless PC and switch to it as you detailed how you want switching to work for KVM.

That said, what you are basically asking for is a more convenient way to switch to other KVM sessions. You may find it useful that they do appear as individual windows when alt + tab when they are not full screen.

Hi,

I didnt quite understand your reply.

If you are suggesting that I could open KVM connections to all my secondaries, they would then show up in the taskbar when the session is minimized, I have tried that.

This approach doesnt work well. First it requires me to connect to all the secondaries manually. (They dont auto-open)

Then cut/paste is difficult. After cutting, I have to cycle through maybe 10+ taskbar items (KVM sessions + all my open windows) to locate the correct one.

Having a desktop that spans all my PCs (like seamless mode in that my secondaries are placed on a grid) is so much better. My desktop would just pan left/right up/down OR better yet, when the mouse goes off screen, my current display simply changes instantly to the new PC where my mouse move to would be so much better.

I would existing seamless mode if I could. If there is a way, please let me know.

Some of my secondaries are not in the same room. I cant get a monitor cable to them so I cant have multiple displays (unless someone knows how to do some kind of wireless display technology)

Thanks for your consideration in this matter

Regards

Paul
