Switch cursor between multiple displays with hotkey

I found this solution a couple years ago - it requires BetterTouchTool which I couldn't live without on my MacBook. In fact, thanks to BTT I wound up buying a trackpad for my desktop too.

1. Go to BetterTouchTool Preferences => Keyboard.
2. Click Add New Shortcut or Key Sequence button.
3. Assign new Keyboard Shortcut from Click to record shortcut
4. for example, for Monitor-1 Control+Shift+1, for Monitor-2 Control+Shift+2 etc.
5. Then from Trigger Predefined Action dropdown menu, select
6. Other Mouse Actions => Move Mouse To Position
7. A modal window will appear to capture your desired mouse position. Simply take your cursor to the desired position of a Monitor and Press Space to capture the position. Now Save the position in the Modal Window.
8. Repeat 2 to 5 for all your Monitors.

I have a large display on my desktop and I keep lots of windows open. So I have bindings for the corners and middle top bottom right and left with the FN key modifier to snap windows to the corners, sides, top and bottom of the display. I also use it to switch desktops.

Check out the community - there’s a button in the bottom left corner. Lots of people have posted entire presets. Lots of ideas there.

I’m not surprised at all, if Apple intended to do so its had more than 20 years. Multiple displays have been common for at least that long. My first multiple display Mac was an SE/30 back in 83 or 84. I’ve always had to resort to a 3 rd party app for this.
