Bug #: 34002 Summary: Fullscreen applications pan away from the application Product: Wine Version: 1.6-rc4 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: hibbsncc1701@yahoo.com Classification: Unclassified
In fullscreen applications, moving the mouse cursor to a screen boundry causes the application to "scroll" off the screen showing the desktop. (or anything else that was running.)
In some cases this causes the application to stop rendering. In other cases the application can not be scrolled back and the application must be restarted to continue use. There is also the possibility that the application can be used normally, although the application may or may not be able to correctly determine the current mouse cursor position. (This makes pop up dialogs impossible to read, some buttons may be unusable, etc.)
This seems to occur at any video resolution, for any application. Setting "Capture mouse pointer in fullscreen application" in winecfg does not work. Currently the only workaround I can find is to run the application in windowed mode (if the application supports it.) or in virtual desktop mode.
