Finally I found out what the problem seems to be:
When I open a window, any window for that matter like registers, main window, 
preferences, the window will not open completely. I discovered it first with 
the preference window: I opened it and only the top third of the bottom left 
close button is visible. In this situation the mouse is of by 1 to 2 lines 
(=rows). Once I have enlarged the window, so that the full button is visible it 
works fine. That same behavior also occurs in windows without buttons (like 
Forward, Close, Save etc). I always have to slightly enlarge or scale down the 
window and the mouse works ok.
Regards 
Lothar
