Mouse Is Not Working Correctly In Developer Mode

Whenever I go into Developer Mode, the mouse I’m using doesn’t work with the precision it should have. I’m using a Logitech mouse, which works fine in all Windows 10 Pro apps, including MSFS 2020 while flying, but not in Developer Mode! For some reason I have to place the pointer away from the option I want to use, which is always further down. The mouse pointer doesn’t appear in the screen shot but I added text to indicate the approximate location of the pointer relative to the option I want to use. I’m having the same issue in all the Developer Mode menus, except the top level main menu that appears at the top left side of the screen, where you can see I was able to choose the “Options”, and once I choose that, or any other options, the mouse loses its precision.

I’ve rarely used Developer Mode before and I don’t recall ever seeing this issue. I am using the latest MSFS 2020 version, which is 1.30.12.0.

Any ideas?

I find that my mouse acts this way in developer mode when I select a resolution which is less than my native resolution of my monitor. So, when I change the resolution in MSFS to 1440p, in developers mode, it seems the mouse still thinks the resolution is 4k.

Thanks, that sounds like a bug, I hope it has been reported.

I will change the Resolution in Graphics and I post a follow-up on it soon. :+1:

Thanks for posting the information about this issue, your tip worked well by changing MSFS’ screen resolution to my monitor’s native resolution. :+1:
