i added barriers. these are xserver-side barriers to thee mouse moving across that boundary: https://git.enlightenment.org/enlightenment/enlightenment/commit/73e391187424c833211ab4f93cca51f0ef4de8af https://git.enlightenment.org/enlightenment/enlightenment/commit/a018f8273fed6549d2fc529e5bb58cba11869ffb https://git.enlightenment.org/enlightenment/efl/src/branch/master/src/lib/ecore_x/ecore_x_fixes.c#L461 your video shows the mouse getting stuck at a barrier at the start ... then just all of a sudden that stops working for some reason. e sets up the barriers when it reconfigures the screen with xrandr. e in git now will also try use the xrandr cmdline to do this too if there which handles barriers on its own. i may have messed up the rect math. can you try apply this patch (attached) to efl and see if it fixes it. > At last, after 2 years, I got the repro. > > E17, ver 0.24.2 > > https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1VVaHfQM7buH7gXJrlzUa62uwet55GtLX?usp=sharing > (may be deleted after 2 months). > > The glitch was: some times, I loose the mouse.
