Does anyone have a solution for this behavior? I want to keep running XCOM in the background while playing HotS and still keep focus only in HotS. The mouse cursor isn't bound to the game's screen.Īs said: this problem occurs specifically for XCOM / XCOM 2 and is not universal (although I can't say for sure it only happens for XCOM). So whenever I hit the left side of my main screen and accidentally click, I'll switch to Windows. The mouse cursor doesn't stay in the HotS window. I'm playing on my main screen (right side) and have another secondary screen set up on the left side – just showing windows desktop. Battle Worlds: Kronos) but when running XCOM this has some severe disadvantages. What this means is there's a period of time when your mouse is still off the screen while panning, so clicking can still shift your screen focus away. This worked perfectly for some games (e.g. I've had the same issue, I'm pretty sure the 'Confine Mouse Cursor' option IS working, but that it takes time for the game to reposition your mouse back into the screen whenever it leaves. Whenever I have an extended waiting period in the other game, I'd switch back to XCOM and continue there. leave XCOM running in the background), say Heroes of the Storm ( HotS).
I do a task change to Windows and start another game (i.e. I run XCOM or XCOM 2 (the problem occurs for both).
