Why does my mouse speed slow down in Editor

Questions & Answers
1

Alright I have the weirdest things happening. When my computer is not focused on the Unity editor my mouse speed is normal, even when mousing over the open program. But if I have the progam active then my mouse slows down to like 1/3 the regular speed. After a lot of web searching and forum digging I can’t find anything close to this. Anyone have any idea why this might be?

I’m running on Windows 7 with a 64 bit OS and a slightly older 2.6 dual core processor. Thanks!

I think I figured it out. Apparently Logitec SetPoint Settings recognizes the Unity Editor as a game, and therefore was not keeping my standard mouse speed and acceleration but using the one for the “game” which didn’t exist so it reverted to a really slow one.

tldr;

Set logitec SetPoint Settings to keep mouse speed while in games. Or turn off game detection.

Hey.
That happened to me once, I have Windows 8 x64 intel i5, I solved it by changing intel graphics properties , just set in balanced in 3d options.
