Use the glide pad to drag monitor 2 around monitor 1 so that it is in the same

screen pointer transits from the screen to the external monitor. For example with
the monitors positioned in the illustration above, when you move the screen
pointer to the right side of the built-in screen, it disappears from the screen and
appears on the left side of the external monitor.
