can i limit the cursor to 1 display when running dual monitors?

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi,

 

Not sure that this is a Labview question or more of a windows question. I am planning to build a Labview application that will use dual displays. One will be a touchscreen the other a standard monitor. I would like to use a mouse to change settings on the normal display but want to stop the cursor from running over onto the touchscreen. I know that i can make the cursor invisible and of no use on the touchscreen but ideally i would like the cursor to be bound within the limits of the normal monitor so the cursor does not get lost as such.

 

Any help/advice greatly appreciated.

 

Regards,

 

Lucither

Thanks Andrey,

 

Looks like this is what i need. I guess that i will have to write some software in VB.Net to implement this and have it running in the background? Will have to dust off my VB skills i think. Havent had time to actually play around with implementing any software to test yet as the project hasnt been given the green light.

 

Thanks again.
