editor & blinking/disappearing mouse cursor
« on: March 24, 2006, 07:54:36 pm »
Hello
I'm using Code::Blocks 1.0rc2 which I compiled from source on Debian "sarge" 3.1 with KDE 3.3. Everything is working fine, except for this thing, when mouse cursor blinks while I drag the cursor over the editor. It kind of disappears and then reappears at the new position. The problem is that if I drag the mouse around with normal speed the cursor is "blinking" so fast that it's basically invisible. Long story short: when I drag the mouse I can't see it and when I stop dragging the cursor reapears. This only happens when the cursor is over the editor elsewhere it's working normally. It's really annoying because it's very difficult to track the cursor. I've been using Code::Blocks on Windows before and I didn't have such problems. So, what might the problem be?

RC2 is relatively old now. I would give a try to a build from the latest SVN sources.

Best wishes,
