Just copy text, HTML, or an image as you normally would on one screen then switch to another screen and paste it. Synergy keeps the cursor on the same screen when Scroll Lock is on. Running a game and don't want synergy to jump screens? No problem. Synergy also understands multiple screens attached to the same computer. You can even have a screen jump to the opposite edge of itself.

You can arrange screens side-by-side, above and below one another, or any combination. The keyboard works normally on each screen input goes to whichever screen has the cursor. Synergy then detects when the mouse moves off the edge of a screen and jumps it instantly to the neighboring screen.

You tell synergy how many screens you have and their positions relative to one another. You use the mouse and keyboard of only one of the computers while you use all of the monitors on all of the computers.

With synergy, all the computers on your desktop form a single virtual screen. If a video is playing in Safari, go to the address bar at the top of the window, right-click the blue audio button on the right of the website address and click Enter Picture in Picture.
