Windows 10: the inverted mouse pointer style just work on one of dual monitor

as the question mentioned, the inverted mouse pointer style just work on one of dual monitorafter some try, find when the monitor of laptop open the HDR, the inverted mouse pointer style will not work

:)

 

The inverted (color) mouse cursor / pointer is sometimes hidden/blocked.

Hello, I've been using the standard "inverted-colors" mouse pointer for years. I just upgraded to a new PC with Win 11, (from Win 10). The mouse pointer always worked as it always did everywhere all the time.

Issue: On the new Win 11 PC, some apps don't render the "inverted-colors" pointer while it is within the window. It always works on window title-bars, taskbars, and within a few pixels of compatible windows (nearly everything). The last item is weird, because there seems to be a transparent "buffer area" surrounding web browser windows, Windows settings app windows, file explorer windows, and most others, where the inverted cursor works over-top-of the "background-only" incompatible window (when it passes though the boundary it is hidden).

It doesn't matter if the incompatible window is full-screen or windowed, solid-color cursors always work, the inverted style doesn't, (but worked on Win 10).

Factorio (the game) is just the first example of an app where the inverted-colors pointer broke for me.

All drivers and Win 11 Home OS up-to-date.

 

Dual monitor, Dual mouse??

Hello,

Please share this information to assist you better.

• How have you setup dual monitors?
• Are you referring to use 2 different mouse/keyboard with the dual monitor setup?

If yes, the mouse or keyboard may function same as one another. Since, it has to be connected to single PC/tower.

However, setting up 2 different mouse/keyboard with the Dual- monitor setup, it may not function separately for each monitor.

Let us know the status of the issue. We will assist you further.

Hi Edward,

There are things to consider should you experience this type of issue while using an extended monitor display. We suggest that you
update your display driver. If you are using a dedicated graphics card, we recommend checking for any driver updates on their website.

You can also enable Display pointer trails to check if your mouse pointer is present on the extended display. To do this, simply follow the steps below:

• Right-click the Start button and select Control Panel.
• Switch the Control Panel view to Small categories.
• Click on Mouse then select the Pointer Options tab.
• Check the tick-box next to Display pointer trails.

Should you have questions, feel free to post them on this thread.
