Bug Description

Program works great, functions seem fine - but mouse is not visible. Tech support asked me to see if the mouse was visible when in windowed mode, but cannot see mouse and cannot therefore use it to select windowed mode from the configuration options. As this is a windows machine, using f11 doesn't work for switching to windows mode either.

-Control buttons are selectable with the mouse, respond to being moused over.
-Buttons on configuration window are NOT selectable and do not respond to being moused over
-Sky cursor is selectable and moveable with (invisible) mouse as well.

Next step: alter config.ini file to toggle from fullscreen and see if the mouse reappears.

Windows 7, Brand new Lenovo laptop.

When configuration is altered to start NOT in fullscreen mode - the mouse is still available. So, it is a problem with being in fullscreen mode somehow.

Not reproducible on Windows7 running on a desktop. Sounds like a problem specific to the video hardware and/or video drivers on that platform. Exact specifications of the video hardware would be useful. Recommend ensuring video drivers are updated to the latest possible.
