Two monitor, multi cam Editing problem

Two monitor, multi cam Editing problem was created by chuckvid
Hi Guys:
I have a Mac mini (late 2009) running El Capitan Version 10.11.3 and edit with FCPX 10.2.1 . Recently I started editing multicam footage with two monitors. The last few times when I click "show viewers on second display" the viewers switch to the second monitor but I can't get my cursor to move to the second monitor, it just goes to the edge of the first monitor screen and no further. Although I don't think there's any connection, my monitors are two new Dell 18" (16/9). It's not a major problem, but there's a reason I bought two monitors and I would like to be able to use both monitors. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Chuck

Hey Chuck,
You may need to open up System Preferences and check the Displays setting for arrangement. Is the right monitor on the right? I guess if you use your mouse on that monitor normally, this wouldn't fix it for you.
*TIP* You can drag the white bar representing the Menu Bar from one monitor to the other to make it the "Primary" display.
