Dual screen bug causing game to tab out to desktop
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I usually play with dual screen disabled for performance issues, but today I played with it enabled without noticing. When I had my cursor over to the left side of the screen, where it would normally move onto my other screen in desktop mode, and then right click to go into free camera mode whilst in third person, my game would tab out to the desktop.

Confirming, I have a TV as secondary monitor (using "Extend desktop to this monitor" setup in windows) and even though it's not switched on this happens.

Tested and it is working as intended.

What happens is that the game keeps rendering the cursor at the position it was last before your cursor went to the other screen. When you right click you actually click on the other screen therefore the "alt+tab" is working as it should.
