Scrolling the screen full screen with more than one monitor

I have two monitors and Elemental is full screen on one of them. When I try to scroll the map to the right, the mouse cursor moves to the next monitor (which is to the right from the monitor I play on). Is there an alternative way to scroll the map than using the mouse cursor?

You can drag with one of the mouse buttons or use WASD, if I recall correctly.

On the first options screen there is a setting to clip the cursor when in fullscreen.  If you enable this you should be able to scroll just fine in multimonitor mode.

I am having this same issue, "clip cursor to screen" does not fix it. actualy, the only way i can scroll with the mouse-to-edge is up, all three other directions are broken. also, i get a bug when i launch the game where the cursor is stuck on the far left of the screen and i have to alt tab out and back in to fix it.

minor quality of life issues, but still a little annoying. I know i can click and drag, and im retraining myself, still annoying tho.

Just a guess here, but do you have your taskbar set to a non-default screen edge?

good guess, its on the left side. i didn't even think of that, i'll try moving it around when i get off work. still, i LIKE my taskbar on the left, would be nice if i didn't have to move it for one game (even if it is an amazing one)  :P

I actually tried the "clip cursor" option before starting this thread, it didn't work then. I tried it again now and still didn't work, BUT after I restarted the game it started working. There should perhaps be a prompt for the user to restart the game after that setting is changed, otherwise the user doesn't notice the setting has any effect.

Anyways, problem solved now. :sun:
