Operating Systems

Server: Windows 10 1809 17763.615

Client: Windows 10 1809 17763.379

Barrier Version

2.3.0

Other info

My setup is the following:

Server is main laptop docked on my desk, with one monitor to its left and one to its right, which is set to primary display, like so:

Client is another laptop which I use below display 3, and therefore would like to have mapped accordingly.

When I go map the screens in Barrier to server above client, the logs show both connecting successfully, but nothing happens moving the server cursor to the lower edge of any screen. Conversely, moving the client screen to the right or above the server works, and the logs show 'leaving.. entering..' at every transition, so I don't believe it's the configuration's fault.

Sorry if repost, I couldn't find any similar issue.

EDIT: It's unrelated, but I'd like to have a "cycle between screens" action for the hotkeys, so that I can have an "ALT-TAB" equivalent and not use two separate hotkeys.
