Hi

I've not looked at it for a few months but the issue was as follows:
Let's say I'm moving the pointer from left to right to select an icon.
On the way, I move the pointer across several icons I don't want to
select.   As it passes over each icon, the icon is highlighted at the
same time the pointer disappears.   Only when the icon is
"unhighlighted" does the pointer reappear.   It would be useful to have
the pointer on screen all the time - whether over an icon or not.

Does that make any sense?
