Latency on mouse pointer when running Grafx2 in Windows 10

[demofrost]

I recently upgraded from Win7 to Win10 and since that there is some latency on the mouse pointer in Grafx2. This is such a big problem that I can't stand using Grafx2 in Win10.
I did not have this problem when running Grafx2 in Win7.

There are some settings you can try to adjust in the INI file:

  ; The sensitivity of the mouse can  | La sensibilitde la souris peut
  ; take values from 1 to 4. The      | prendre des valeurs de 1 4. Plus
  ; smaller values, the faster.       | les valeurs sont petites, plus c'est
  ; This only takes effect in         | rapide. Ce paramrage n'est utilis
  ; fullscreen modes.                 | que dans les modes "plein ran".
  ;                                   | 
  X_sensitivity = 1     ; (default 1)
  Y_sensitivity = 1     ; (default 1)

  ; This setting allows you merge successive mouse movements into a single
  ; mouse movement. You should only use it if you are using a mouse which
  ; reports at 200Hz or more, and you experience lag when using discontinuous
  ; hand-drawing with large brushes (this tool tries to paste the brush and
  ; update the screen on each new mouse position) In this case, set this to 2
  ; or more, to ignore some intermediate mouse reports when a more recent one
  ; is present.
  ; Note that with a value superior to 1, you lose precision with continuous
  ; hand-drawing, as intermediate mouse positions are skipped.
  Merge_movement = 0 ; (default 0)

The second one can also be changed in the settings menu.

I'm eager to know if there is the same issue with the Win32 "GDI" build of GrafX2

[PulkoMandy]

Anyone has feedback on the native GDI or the SDL2 builds? Do they make things better?

[Thomas Bernard]

I think we should close the issue.
we can always reopen it if the problem is still there.
