--- Comment #2 from dwinie...@boisestate.edu --- Thank you for this. I have traced the trouble to a desktop/system setting in the native Ubuntu/Unity system. In particular: 1. Open System Settings... / Mouse and Touchpad 2. Deselect checkbox labelled "Show position of pointer when Control key is pressed" The described problem no longer occurs in LibreOffice Writer. _don On Sun, Apr 14, 2013 at 5:27 AM, <bugzilla-dae...@freedesktop.org> wrote: > A <stgohi-lob...@yahoo.de> changed bug > 56239<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56239> > What Removed Added CC stgohi-lob...@yahoo.de > > *Comment # 1 <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56239#c1> on bug > 56239 <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56239> from > A<stgohi-lob...@yahoo.de> > * > > I think this is not a bug.
