Weird - what theme do you have selected? And this happens just running the cursor demo from the test folder? With a straight build of 1.1.x.-r5940 ? I just tried this on a Gnome/FC7 box, and I get the "right thing" for FL_CURSOR_MOVE, even with a few different themes selected... > In reply to matthias: I guess I expected FLTK's > consistency across platforms to extend to the cursors > too.

The problem is always how the theme designer chose to represent the cursor, if they chose to alter them - and there's no way to be sure what you'll get unless you implement your own cursor glyphs, I'm afraid. You can get more or less the same effect of win32 boxes with some of the more "adventurous" cursor themes there, too, for just the same reason, so it is not a peculiarly linux or even fltk problem - it's just arty graphics designers not implementing the cursors in a sensible fashion...! _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
