Hi Bryce,

I have avoided the problem by disabling "hide mouse on typing", I still
believe this to be a bug though as the mouse definitely stops moving (not
just hidden)

Please let me know if you need more information.

Regards,

David

Please help me provide more information around a trackpad issue:

Issue: Trackpad on laptop seems to stick for 0.2Msec after a key on the
keyboard is pressed.

Scenario: Pressing the letter "g"(or any key) if you move the mouse around
while pressing g, you will notice that the mouse sticks when you press the
key(I.E Mouse disappears off screen for a split second, it is not that the
mouse is only hidden as it is obvious the mouse did not move at all in the
period it was invisible), the mouse resumes moving after 0.1~2 Msec after
keypress, pressing the button again will repeat the problem.

Note: Holding down the key will only make the mouse stick for the initial
press, if the mouse then becomes unstuck.
