Hello. I have 2 working monitors, I recently purchased an additional monitor for myself that can work in touch mode.
After connecting, I found the following problem: the touch monitor functions work correctly only if this monitor is selected as the main monitor in the system.
If you set it as an additional one, then all touch clicks work only on the monitor that is currently the current one.
Is there any way to make windows work with a touch monitor whether it is the primary one or not?

In Windows, the touch input is typically associated with the primary display to ensure consistent and predictable behavior. However, you can adjust the touch input settings to work across all monitors. Here's how you can try to resolve this issue: 1. Check Touch Input Settings: - Go to "Settings" by right-clicking on the desktop and selecting "Display settings." - Scroll down and find the section for "Multiple displays." - Toggle the option for "Make this main display" to the touch-enabled monitor to see if touch input works as intended on secondary monitors. 2. Calibrate Touch Input: - You can calibrate the touch input to manage variations in touch sensitivity. - Search for "Calibrate the screen for pen or touch input" in...

Third-party Tools: - Consider using third-party software that can manage touch input settings across multiple monitors. These tools might offer more advanced configurations for touch displays. 4. Check Driver Updates: - Ensure that all display drivers are up to date. Sometimes, driver updates can resolve touch input issues on secondary monitors. 5. Testing with Different Configurations: - Test various configurations to identify if the issue persists with specific monitor arrangements or if it's consistent across all setups. By following these steps and exploring touch input configurations in Windows settings, you should be able to optimize touch input behavior across all monitors, whether they are primary or secondary displays.
