Hyper sensitive mouse movement with high DPI displays

from Stardock Forums

I use Multiplicity seamless where both primary and secondary use 4k monitors and have the text scale set to 150%. I noticed that when controlling the secondary, mouse movement is way more sensitive compared to primary. Is this because mouse positions get scaled when scaling up text? Is there any way to fix this and keep the mouse sensitivity consistent?

Which version of Mulitplicity are you using?

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

If you mean cursor speed, does the option to edit it on the Secondary resolve it?

Also, are you saying that it was not like that prior to 3.5, that upgrading to it changed how the mouse behaved over 3.44?

Yes, changing the mouse cursor speed in the control panel applet on the secondary made it better. The problem is I use my secondary computer both via Multiplicity and directly on the physical keyboard/mouse. So with this workaround, I'd have to change the sensitivity every time I switch how I control the secondary. It gets tedious.

I don't believe this is a new issue with 3.5. I only noticed this when I switched to 4k monitor and 150% desktop scale.
