Title: Second monitor using touchscreen?
Post by: OverDhill on January 23, 2014, 06:26:37 pm
Is there any way to unlock the SetCapture or ClipCursor function (or shatever method it uses) for FS2?

I would like to use a second monitor touchscreen with Helios or Touchbuddy to send keyboard commands from a GUI sreen. I know some older games had a command line or config setting for the mouse mode like IL-2 1946 for example.


"SetCapture" - This issue affects games where the developers have prevented the mouse/cursor from leaving the game window area (Using SetCapture).

"ClipCursor" - Some games use another method to "trap" the mouse inside the game window area, and its called "ClipCursor"
