Cursor Issue

Mouse fails to keep scaling after swapping monitor

from Stardock Forums

I'm currently on the latest: Windows 10 1903, after switching back to my main PC from alternative monitor the size of the mouse reverts to the default the windows setting doesn't alter back just requires me to re-apply in the windows mouse setting after each swap.

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues. Not sure what you mean by swapping monitors. Please elaborate and details on resolutions and scaling if any.

Thanks

Really weird issue because cursor scaling is done by hardware. My second monitor (65" tv) is scaled to 150%,

Camera capture:

after swapping back to the main pc after controlling my secondary machine in the room it loses its scaling.

 

Mouse just needs to refresh after swapping Desktops (PCs not monitors) sorry about that title.

well I guess no replies from here, so had to find an external method;

in autohotkey:

DllCall("SystemParametersInfo", "UInt", 0x57, "UInt", 0, "UInt", 0, "UInt", 0)

refreshes cursor and fixes the issue.
