Is anyone else having trouble with the cursor not updating, or sometimes

This continues to happen with me, not just with 4.5.3, but for years.  And
it's not sometimes locking, it's *always* locking (it happened again just 5
minutes ago).  I know something is locking the cursor because if I run
"unlock cursor" in the message box, the cursor becomes normal again.

Yeah, I've had that too but not as persistent as it is now. I'm also used to the thing where you sometimes have to move the cursor outside the script window to get it to reset. But now it's a little different than that. It still does its share of locking, but sometimes unlocking doesn't fix it -- it's like the cursor isn't locked but it isn't getting update info.

The biggest difference is how I can't get a window to focus. Sometimes if I click on a different window and then back again, it will. Sometimes it won't. Sometimes if I click in the titlebar instead of the window content, it will focus. Sometimes it won't. That's new behavior.

FWIW, I usually find the script editor is the culprit, but I can't nail down
a recipe for it.

Certainly more common there. Since I have it open almost all the time, it's hard to say. The window focus problem may not be the script editor though. I need to pay more attention.


Now that you say you're affected by this problem, I wonder if some of your
stocks are stuck in my machine.

I did wash some socks that contained a tiny camera, but I wasn't aiming for your house. Sorry about that. Once they leave the dryer I have no more control.
