Using »CrossDisplay Switching«
How to use CrossDisplay Switching to switch to another module:
Move the cursor to the edge of an active monitor placed next to another monitor.
The matrix switch switches to the module of the next monitor and positions the cur-
sor. You will barely realize the switching between computers.
If you reach the outer edges (left edge of
Monitor 1
or right edge of
Monitor 3
) CrossDis-
play Switching does not take place.
If you hold a mouse key while moving the mouse, switching cannot be carried out.
However, you can still drag and drop objects.
IMPORTANT:
Depending on operating system and mouse driver, there might be
some restrictions:
Under Mac OS, the mouse might jitter at the edge of the screen.
Under Linux there might be some problems when placing and moving the
mouse.
NOTE:
It is possible that mouse gestures used by some programs (like Firefox) to
run functions cannot be applied.
