Using Input Director, you can position the monitors of your systems side-by-side and then control all of them via one keyboard / mouse.
To transition which system you're controlling is as simple as moving the cursor off the screen on one system and it'll pop up on the next screen (similar to a multi-monitor setup) or via a hotkey combo.
Input Director also lets you share clipboard contents, so you can copy from one machine, switch over to another and then paste. This also works for files that are in network shared directories.
New features include:
- Shared clipboard reworked to improve performance and bug fixes
- Improved compatibility with Windows 8/10
- Performance improvements when adding/deleting slaves
- Master can now control up to 32 slave computers
- Fixed bug that caused the cursor intermittantly not to hide properly on Windows 10
- Minor bug fixes
- Minor enhancements
