Not sure what's going on, it's likely the same thing I had before when trying to use XLib to read out mouse position from an external monitor. Here's the error message:

Are you still getting this error message? When I use an external monitor at home (as the secondary monitor in display settings and 1 in the global settings) it works properly. I have the main monitor on the left and the secondary monitor on the right though. That might be the issue?

Try changing the display settings so that the screen that the experiment is running in is the secondary monitor and is on the right side of the main monitor. image

Above are the monitor settings i used when programming the fix with an external monitor.

The laptop screen is the primary monitor, and is on the left side of the external monitor.
