ConfineMouse

ConfineMouse is an application specifically created for those users who deal with multi-monitor setups on a daily basis. The idea with this application, hence the name, is to confine the mouse cursor to one monitor out of all that are active on a system. This deals with annoying situations where you lose sight of your cursor because it is either in-between screens, or simply on another one altogether.

With this program, its main window becomes a settings panel, accessible from the OS tray menu. It won't bother you and can be triggered only when the user needs to adjust some aspects. In terms of what can be changed, there aren't many choices. Still, what has been included is highly useful. For example, one can choose which monitor the cursor will be confined to. Will it be the first one, the second, or the last? That's totally up to you. You can have the app start deactivated when it is launched.

Probably the most useful of features has to do with the inclusion of a hotkey option. It's great to have a fast way to activate and deactivate the app since the whole idea behind it is to help the user win precious time. It's even more helpful that the key combination can be changed to whatever the user needs. The preset one is Ctrl + D and should work fine if you don't have anything particular in mind.

ConfineMouse is a simple tool created for multi-monitor users, an application that's supposed to help you and anybody else in the same situation keep track of the mouse cursor without wasting time on a basic action such as this one. It's worth noting that the app can also be activated or deactivated from the System Tray.
