I found the site where the Eclipse theme cursor in CursorFX 2.05 disappears. Try to reply to the thread there and you'll see what I mean, it's linked below, please let me know if does not load. When I click reply, I don't see a blinking text cursor in the, I see nothing at all. I start typing anyway and the text appear but still no text cursor. If I mouse over I get the text cursor, I click for an insertion point and mouse away, it's gone. If I click outside the box and back in,

Well, I uninstalled CursorFX, rebooted, reinstalled a fresh download, opened it, and all the previous installed cursors still appeared, including Transcend. So I deleted it and reinstalled, but I still see the dumbell. Drop Plus also still behaves the same way. Listen, I don't mind troubleshooting if that's what you want to do, it's up to you. Because I'd just as well go with a different theme if you've got bigger and better things to do.
Hi theAVMAN, If not the dumbell, what should I see? I hope I don't have to buy, cause I'm using the free CursorFX v2.05 I will try the R&R as you suggest and report back if the dumbell is still there Thanks for the help.
[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="21" id="2758286"]Better yet, to edit the cursor, open CFX and choose Drop Plus as if you were gonna use it, then go to the far right and click the pencil. Voila![/quote] Great tip, thanks. I'll play around in there and see what I can do.
[quote who="Wizard1956" reply="17" id="2754389"]Have you tried opening Drop Plus in the CFX Theme Editor...[/quote] I just did but can't figure out how to open that particular theme in it for edit. [quote who="Cameochi" reply="18" id="2755634"]...Sorry I couldn't be more help. [/quote] Thanks so much for trying. p.s. I did reply to theAVMAN, but ....he must be busy
Well, just to follow-up to end this thread. Seems to me Drop Plus has auto-hide built-in. So, I've dumped it for another theme.
I was able to delete it from CursorFX. Downloaded and installed from https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/cursorfx/79/ and it still does the same thing. Is there a better place to get it from?
theAVMAN, sorry, didn't see your post till after the fact. I'm using Win7HomePremium64bit. With the transcend theme, the inverted dumbbell looking cursor remains, even while typing, just the way I like it but wish to have it with DropPlus.
I don't think it's another process stealing focus because if the pointer is left with inactivity else where on the page, it merely sleeps there visibly indefinitely. The next time I run across this situation I'll bookmark it, boot cleanly, and see what happens. Perhaps it makes a difference, I'm on Win7HomePremium64bit. What did happen to this feature of hiding the cursor in CursorXP (I enver had CursorXP), perhaps the fix for me lies in it?
I have it, seemingly, built-in permanently in mine, please take it...:)
Hi, Okay, no, I obviously am not describing the problem I'm having clearly enough because the cursor is acting like Windows normal Pointer Option 'hide pointer while typing' is selected. It was un-selected before installing Cursor FX. Let me explain, when I mouse over text in this Quick Reply pane text box, the normal cursor (droplet) turns into a text cursor (a vertical line with a tiny round dot at each end). That text cursor is un-animated a
anybody?
Hi, I'm using Cursor FX v 2.05 with the theme, Drop Plus. When in a text box the text select cursor hides after about 3 seconds of no movement. Is there a way to change that? Also, sometimes after clicking in the text area, the blinking insertion point also hides, but perhaps that's due to the app with the text? Thanks, Selvan
