Might be worth checking your mouse settings - there's an option to "hide
cursor when typing" that might be responsible for this.  Check server and
viewer.

Subject: Cursor disappears in Notepad


I am using VNC Viewer Free Edition 4.1.3 on XP and accessing a PC running
VNC Server Free Edition 4.1.3 in Service Mode also on Windows XP.  In many
programs, the locally rendered cursor disappears when in an editable text
field.  A simple example is Notepad.  When hovering over a menu, the arrow
cursor is displayed as expected.  But over the main text editing area, where
you would normally get the "I-beam" cursor, I see nothing.
 
I know about the Render cursor locally option.  I have had to turn it off
since otherwise the cursor totally disappears in many places as mentioned
above.  But I would like to be able to use this feature as the mouse action
is much smoother with it on, especially with slower connections.
 
Any ideas?
