Hot corner windows 8

You with this reply? Thanks for your feedback, it helps us improve the site. How satisfied are you with this reply? Thanks for your feedback. The user was a bit unclear in his description so I will try to clarify since I have the same problem.The issue is that a full screen game (tested with "borderless maximized windowed" games, untested with "full screen" games) will lock the cursor to the window (draw area) but the Windows 8 hot corners are still accessible.This means that when you move the mouse into a corner of the screen you get the start, task switch or charms bar/box popups.This is not a problem in normal application usage because you rarely use the corners of your screen and definitely not while under time pressures. However, many games have edge scrolling which means when you touch the edge of the screen you scroll the view area in that direction. Many games also involve clicking at the same time as edge scrolling. The end result is that when you are playing a game and try to edge scroll down+left or down+right or up+left you end up moving your mouse into the corner of the screen. If you then click at the same time you end up clicking on the Windows 8 hot corner that activates some Windows 8 feature rather than clicking into your game as you desired.On top of this, Windows 8 captures the mouse in the hot corners which means you often can't edge scroll your game at all if you go straight to the corner because Windows 8 captures the mouse input from the game.The end result of all this is a very dissatisfying gaming experience on Windows 8 when playing any game with this edge-scrolling mechanic. Examples include Starcraft 2, Civilization V, League

Used to be able to see all the active windows in Words, for example, by pointing the mouse to the lower right corner. Don't know what that feature is called, so can't find instructions. I checked for "multiple screen" display, but I get the message: "The Arrangement tab of Displays preferences is hidden because you only have a single display attached to this computer." so I assume that's not it...Thanks!

You can find this setting by choosing Apple menu > System Preferences, then clicking Mission Control. Look for the Hot Corners button in the lower left corner of the window. You can set your preferred hot corner to "Application Windows" to see all windows of a single application, or "Mission Control" to see windows for all the open apps on your Mac.
