Mouse pointer in MS Office is not working correctly.

Reported by: PeterE Owned by:
Component: guest additions Version: VirtualBox 6.1.18
Keywords: Mouse pointer MS Office Cc:
Guest type: Windows Host type: Windows

Description

Microsoft uses special mouse pointers in MS Office (Excel, Word, Access). These mouse pointers don't work since VirtualBox 6.1.x. It has worked in VB 5.2 and maybe in 6.0 (not sure). I assume it is a problem of the guest additions for Windows. I am using Windows 10 on the host and Windows XP with Office 2003 in the VB guest with a scale factor of 1.2.

I found out that the special mouse pointers are working if the scale factor for the guest is 1.0. If I use a scale pointer of >1.0 then the mouse pointers don't work.
