Public bug reported: At times (mostly undetermined) when touching the glide pad to take an action the cursor will jump to the left edge of the screen.
I do not recall the system ever taking ACTION based on the click at the new location. ex: side bar opening, etc It may not ever take the action at the ORIGINAL location, I can't be sure since I am only alerted when things don't happen as I expect. If I am using the keyboard to type or scroll (arrows) I have not noticed anything strange. I am not sure if it only happens when attempting a Left click or a Right Click. As a developer I think it is seeing my Click and reading the position incorrectly or hitting some other error condition. I do believe it is a result of my click.
