Mouse cursor timeout

[Sola Giuliano]

If active "Mouse cursor timeout" after struggles to reappear, I have to move the mouse a lot before he reappears, first it was enough to move the mouse and immediately reappeared; has for some time that happens but I had turned off and had forgotten me, Regards, Giuliano.

Activated "Mouse cursor timeout" after a few seconds the cursor disappears but returns with difficulty, I have to move the mouse a lot to make it appear still, in the 0.12 version as soon as you move the mouse the cursor reappeared, Giuliano.

The "Mouse cursor timeout" option is in "Configuration", "Navigation", "Control".

Seems this issue related to switch sky "GUI" to QML, because it can be reproduced when cursor won't "touched" a main GUI of the application.

I am new, and just downloaded Stellarium. I've read all the comments here but still cannot get the cursor to show at all. I have very carefully navigated blind until I got the cursor time out box checked and everything I can think of, but the mouse cursor will never show, even after moving around for over ten minutes. Am I still doing something wrong or does this need to be addressed in an update?

Confirmed on linux. I will have a look at this.

Just pushed a small fix that should correct the problem.

In short, a while ago I did a commit so that we do not boost the fps simply for a mouse movement event, but I didn't realize that the same code was used to update the cursor visibility status.

Thank you. Does the program update automatically, or should I uninstall and download it again?

Michael the correction will be active from version 0.13.2, but probably will already be available in the next beta version 0.13.1.98 which usually comes out on weekends, you'll need to download and install it again, Hello, Giuliano.
