#18382 new defect

Cursor scaling - cursor becomes very small or sometimes almost invisible

Description

This bug is not new to version 6 as I've seen it in 5.2 also. The mouse pointer (hardware cursor) depending on the application can become very small or even almost disappear. The cursor becomes much smaller in the RDP session started from the guest. Also it is smaller and with weird shapes in MS Office applications like Excel or Word. In Word or any other text editor (like Notepad++) where the cursor should be an I-beam it pretty much disappears. What is left of it when the mouse pointer is over an editor window are literally 2 pixels. Almost impossible to see. This bug has been on and off over the last few months. I suspect although have no proof that Microsoft patches to the host or guest OS cause this change of behavior. Right now the bug is fully "visible" (pun intended).
