      Hi there,
      Notes:

      1. This issue was not present in 4.32.
      2. My PC is Win 7, running 2 monitors, 2nd monitor is touch screen running helios (loz) overlay with lightnings MFD extractor.

      Issue:
      When using mouse inside ‘primary’ screen which has BMS running, no issue.

      When i touch the 2nd screen (running helios) the ‘windows’ arrow mouse pointer appears on the second screen.

      When I move back to the primary monitor I have the ‘in game’ mouse pointer AND the windows mouse pointer. Further, they are not co-located, they are separated with gaps that appear to vary in size, but they are never even vaguely close.

      Anyone else getting this - any fix/work arounds?

        I bring up the task manager and “switch to” Falcon BMS and that fixes the windows cursor bleeding through for me.

          I had that issue in 4.32 all updates and 4.33. It is related to windows management and capture mouse or not in BMS with external screen when clicking outside. If I made Alt+Tab it happened always. It can be fixed as Frederf said.
          I think is related to the relative mouse position of BMS.
          Cheers

            Hi thanks for the feed back. Is there a more lasting fix though? Bringing up the task manager after every click on my touch screen is not really going to be practical : (

              What I did was not clicking anymore inside BMS main screen. Everything should be in the touchscreen. Anyway, if you have to, after finishing move the mouse pointer out of the main screen. The BMS pointer hides automatically.
              Good luck

                Nothing new.

                [CTRL + ALT + DEL] then press [ESC].
