OK: I think I've figured it. The problem is/was that since the pointer was not normally inside the monitor window when the cursor change was made AND there was no event polling during the read, the cursor was stuck in what ever state it entered the window. Since other parts of the program use openmp for parallel DO loops, I've put a parallel section so that one thread polls events while the other does the reads. Thanks for all the comments, they did help getting me thinking down the right lines. _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
