Mouse pointer disappears when over line number/bookmark column
-
Hello,
I see exact behavior described in this prior thread:
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/10650/mouse-pointer-disappears-when-over-line-number-columnI.e., on Windows 10, the mouse pointer disappears when mouse is hovering over the line number & bookmark column at left edge of the NotePad++ UI. It reappears when I move the mouse to the left or right of this line number & bookmark bar.
A reboot has not fixed the issue. In fact, I have seen the same issue now on two separate Win10 computers. N++ version is 7.5.1, and my Win10 is “Pro” version, Version = 10.0.15063 Build 15063 (i.e., it is patched up to “Windows 10 Creators Update” = Build 15063). I don’t know if this was happening prior to installing 15063 update.
I do have CursorFX installed on my system, and am typically using a custom cursor set. But even when I switch back to the Windows default cursor set, I still see the same issue. I do not believe CursorFX runs in the background after it is closed, so I do not think it is somehow causing this issue.
Thanks!

OK, so… I was wrong :-): CursorFX does have some kind of background process (some deets here: http://www.shouldiremoveit.com/CursorFX-6963-program.aspx). After uninstalling CursorFX & rebooting my laptop, the issue has resolved: I can now see my mouse pointer when it is over that line number & bookmark column.
Cheers,
Eric
