Could it be related to a less-than usual screen resolution I'm using? I'm currently running at 1792x1344. I took a screenshot measuring just how far the mouse jumps when crossing a screen. Going from left to right, the mouse jumps 358 pixels, going from right to left it jumps 362 pixels.

Now, 1792-360=1432
and 1792-360-360=1072

neither of which are standard resolutions.

Thanks for answering, but I don't understand. It worked great with 4.0 and 4.2. What could happen?

You can't disable this. Without this small space, there could happen some ugly things by switching through the desktops.

Mouse pointer jump into new workspace

Hi,

I move the mouse pointer to the edge of the screen to navigate between workspaces. However, when I jump into the next workspace, the mouse pointer already is ~200px inside the next space. This is irritating when e.g. want to close a program and carelessly move the mouse too far and jump far into the next screen. I can understand that this is a feature, not a bug, but I'd like to turn it off/remove it if possible.

Thanks
