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.

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? _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list VNC-List@realvnc.com To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list VNC-List@realvnc.com To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
