Windows jumping about when re-fousing on Fusion 11.5

Hi peeps,

Having a really strange issue since upgrading to Fusion 11.5.  I'm running on a MacPro with Mojave 10.14.6 and haven't done anything with the system update, just with Fusion.

I use Fusion in full screen mode on a second monitor.  If i click outside into the native Mac environment on the primary monitor and then back to Fusion, I'm getting the front window of the Windoze application jumping about.  Sometimes it's making a 'click-drag' selection in the Win application as it all moves around.  There's no heavy process running in the background of either environment, but it's just like there's been a mouse click lag.  Everything was running just fine right up until the Fusion upgrade so I'm confident it's something to do with the new version.  VMtools are up to date etc.

Has anyone else come across this one yet?  It's doing my head in!

Cheers

Rob

I just got another email from VMWare support:

the Engineering team has scheduled a fix for this issue in 11.5.5

As of now we do not have an ETA of this release as there is a lot of testing still going on.

Same issue.

It gets so annoying if you are switching between host and VM consistently and VM contains sensitive applications that you can't take chance to mess up.

I happened upon this same solution while trying to figure it out.  Specifically, disabling only the "Logi Options Daemon" for "Input Monitoring" fixes the issue for me.

I have just updated to 11.5.5 (on Catalina 10.15.5), and the issue still persist (if not worse) :smileyangry:

...and, by the way, I don't have any "Logi Options" nor "Logi Options Daemon" in my "Accessibility or "Input monitoring" of my Security and Privacy section of the System Preferences.

Fusion 12.1.0 on MacOs Catalina 10.15.7 (19H524).

The issue still persists, and I have recently lost ALL of my work sent emails because of this particular issue. This is driving me insane!
