Does anyone know of a way to temporarily bind the cursor to a specific application or maybe one screen. I'm playing Fallout 4 on my main monitor and want to have a web browser and GPU Tweak on the secondary, but right now any time I my cursor too far to the side it ends up on the other screen. I'd like to just be able to alt-tab over to other applications when necessary. I have looked through Windows settings, Nvidia Experience/ Control Panel, and the game settings. I am pretty sure GTA V has a setting for that, but  I am hoping there a way to do it with other software.

 

This is my build http://pcpartpicker.com/list/tKpshq

Thanks for Helping.

I tried that. Unfortunately the cursor still wasn't window bound.

In your "display settings" in windwos, are the screen set to "extend these displays" ?

Yes I did it through windows first and then tried doing it through the nvidia control panel

Does it only happen in Fallout 4 or do other games do that too ?
