multi monitor

good morning (at least, it's is tuesday morning here in germany ;-) ) this issue is about a problem in auto mounting while having multiple monitors. short history: I was always woundering, why I had problems here at work, while at home everything seems to be ok. afterchecking ( and eleminating) every thing different at these to places, I am of the opinion, that it's a problem with more monitores ( and maybe tx-mouse?) So, please let me describe the effect(s) I had (last not least, I know) At monitor three, there is keypass displayed. Working at this monitore (means 'focus') I say : mount container AB at drive y: . What happens is simple: the password input window is opend at monitor one (the laptop itself, main screen), the mouse pointer jumps to the little window and the password is put in. The whole password? No, some characters still resists to 'travel' to the input window. this last for less than three seconds than veracrypt tries to mount the container. raising the time limit to 15 seconds doesn't change everything to this effect. However, when I put keypass at the (much smaller) screen one (of the laptop) the same effect: the mouse jumps to the popping up screen, but now the whole password is put in and the mounting functions very well. This took me some time to find out and to give the truth a word, this effect would be the last I expected. I tried out threee times. If you need some more input, do not hesitate to ask me directly at jueg -at- gmx.de
