    Map Editor - Mouse issues while 'testing' the map

    Quick question:
    Far Cry 4's map editor is amazingly fun to use, however, whenever I go to test a map I simply cannot play it.
    The mouse cursor 'sticks' in the corner of the screen, and upon any right click the menu with close, minimize etc appears. Also upon left clicking to shoot the windows becomes unfocused and other programs come into focus.
    The singleplayer side of things works fine, love it. It's just this one little nag that is stopping me from completely indulging all the fun out of Far Cry 4.
    Information:
    Windows 8 - 64bit
    GTX 660 TI
    Intel core i7 3770k
    multi monitor setup
    Things i've tried:
    disabling/unplugging all monitors except the main one
    multiple in-game graphical related settings changed
    Editor gamer profile edit to 'try' enable fullscreen, it didn't work.
    I've seen a few topics around with a similar issue however, no replies were ever given on them.
    Does anyone have solutions available?
    Thanks.

    Did you ever figure this out. I just bought FC4, and am having the same exact problem. I suspect it has something to do with me having multiple monitors. Do you have 2 or more monitors?

    PS> I also have issues with W-A-S-D keys "sticking" only when using the editor, not in the game itself. So the map keeps scrolling sometimes.

    Sounds to me like a different window gets the focus, possibly supposed to be hidden or resized to 1x1 pixel.

    I'm having window location issues with the Far Cry 5 editor,and I expect my issue is related to having the editor run as "Maximized" instead of "Restored".

    In my FC5 case it pertains to the Editor in Edit mode, are you in Play/Explore mode, or does it also occur in the Edit mode?

    Blast from the past, I never had this issue on FC4 before, and now I'm also noticing it... I switched from a single monitor to a dual monitor setup. So I think that may indeed be related. Quite annoying.
