| Abstract |
Pointer warping can be an effective alternative to relocate the mouse pointer to a remote display in multi-display environments. It minimizes the mouse pointer travel and does not require the user to search for a path to the target display. However, little is known about the factors that influence the performance of pointer warping. In this paper we explore the characteristics of pointer warping compared to standard mouse behavior on a dual-monitor setup with varying physical distance. Our results show that the performance of pointer warping is hardly affected by the distance of the pointer warp, but is influenced by the direction of the warp. |
