  1. Monitor alignment nit


    I have one monitor in landscape mode and one in portrait mode. No matter how I align them in Display Settings, the cursor tracks as if the monitor tops are aligned. When I move the mouse from the landscape monitor to the portrait monitor, the cursor appears to shift vertically. Is there a fix for this?What I set: ---- What I get:

    How to align Portrait and Landscape monitor, so that mouse doesn’t jump up or down?

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    We understand you want to align multiple monitors in such a way that, the mouse doesn’t jump up or down while moving between them.



    To do this you will have to alignment of the monitor in Settings as per your requirement. Refer the steps mentioned below:



    1. Press Windows key + I, to open
      Settings
      .
    2. Click on System and select
      Display
      from the left pane.
    3. Now, under Rearrange your displays, click on any one of the monitor, hold the mouse button and drag it to align it.


    You can refer the screenshot below:

    However, if you want to move from the bottom of the Portrait monitor to the Landscape monitor, you will have to drag the mouse upwards. Moving the mouse sideways from the bottom will not allow you to move between the monitors.



    We always appreciate our customer’s feedback, and your feedback and suggestions are very important to us. Hence, I suggest you to provide your valuable feedback and ideas in our
    Feedback Hub, where our developers can look
    into the requests and constantly improve the features of Windows.

  3. Win 10 monitor alignment calibration

    I can't change the resolution from 1280 x 1024. It won't accept any other resolution. My actual res is 1920 x 1080 I can't find an alignment grid in Win 10. I know how to do it in Vista and 7 but not 10. How do I access the alignment grid?

    Nobody knows how to find an alignment grid in Win10 . . .really?

    Does this silence mean there is no alignment grid?

    Multiple monitor alignment

    I have a 50" 4K UHD monitor (4096x2160) and a 28" 4K UHD (3880x2160). The 50" is treated as my primary monitor. and is in standard Landscape mode (4096x2160). The 28" is to the left and is in Portrait mode (2160x3880). Physically they are almost a perfect
    match in this layout.

    The trouble comes when I wish to go between them using the mouse. From the Portrait mode monitor I cannot move to the Landscape one unless I move the mouse to 1/2 way down and then it moves to the Landscape monitor top.

    My suggestion is simple. Have a check mark to scale the edges that touch, so that the Portrait mode 3880 to is scaled to 2160 for the Landscape monitor top, as far as mouse cross-over is concerned, and vice versa. This would align the visual to the physical
    and make it easier to use.
