I just tried it on Win7/64bit and don't see this issue. You might try deleting it and redownloading and installing it again. You can get it here: https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/cursorfx/79/

Hi,

Okay, no, I obviously am not describing the problem I'm having clearly enough because the cursor is acting like Windows normal Pointer Option  'hide pointer while typing' is selected.  It was un-selected before installing Cursor FX.

Let me explain, when I mouse over text in this Quick Reply pane text box, the normal cursor (droplet) turns into a text cursor (a vertical line with a tiny round dot at each end).  That text cursor is un-animated and steady-on.  I can left-click which places a blinking vertical line there, drag to select text, the text is highlighted in blue clearly and I can do functions as expected.

Trouble is in some text boxes on the web after clicking to type and pondering for 3 secs, not only does the Cursor FX text cursor hide, the blinking insertion point's vertical line also hides leaving me blinded as to where I am on the page.  And, to make matters worse, clicking in the text box again does not bring back any cursor or insertion point.  I've since found that if I click outside the box first then back in the box, it all comes back again but onl for another 3 secs... that gets real annoying, if you know what I mean.

So, I'm hoping, if I can turn-off this auto hide behavior I'm experiencing with Cursor FX I can perhaps get around those text boxes I run across daily that seem to behave abnormally elsewhere on the web.

Thanks for the support and these really cool cursors,

Selvan

Whatever happened to the hide cursor after a few minutes? CursorXP had it. Wish it were back in CursorFX.

I second this possibility, I have been using Drop Plus since seeing this thread yesterday with no issues at all. Windows XP SP3, CursorFX Plus.

Selvan777...

(1) which OS are you on (this does matter actually)

(2) have you tried another cursor

Try this one and let me know what you find!!

theAVMAN, sorry, didn't see your post till after the fact. 

I'm using Win7HomePremium64bit.

With the transcend theme, the inverted dumbbell looking  cursor remains, even while typing, just the way I like it but wish to have it with DropPlus.

I was able to delete it from CursorFX. Downloaded and installed from https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/cursorfx/79/ and it still does the same thing.  Is there a better place to get it from?

Well, just to follow-up to end this thread.

Seems to me Drop Plus has auto-hide built-in.

So, I've dumped it for another theme.

Hi again.  I am using Drop Plus with Windows 7 32 bit.  I cannot get it to duplicate the problem Selvan777 was having.  It's a fun cursor and working fine here.  Sorry I couldn't be more help. 

Run Theme editor, and click on File at the top, then open. Browse to your cursors in C:\Users\Public\Documents\Stardock\CursorFX\Themes and select  Drop Plus.

You should then be able to mod the cursor. Don't forget to save a back up of the original in case the mod goes awry.

It's a long holiday weekend so you may have to wait for a response from theAVMAN.

Selvan sorry for responding slow I have been working a lot.

1st... The reason I asked about the OS I have noticed a few glitches with it on Vista primarily but on win7 it seems very stable.

2nd.. After applying Transcend you should not have the dumbell any more if you did someting did not apply correctly.

3rd.. I forgot to ask if you are using the free version of CFX or not?

        if you are runningg the free version I suggest an unistall reboot and reinstall because if the dumbell remained after

        applying Transcend then there is definately a glitch somewhere.

I will be gald to try and help!

Hi theAVMAN,

If not the dumbell, what should I see?

I hope I don't have to buy, cause I'm using the free CursorFX v2.05

I will try the R&R as you suggest and report back if the dumbell is still there

Thanks for the help.
