Cursor disappears in spot view, and stays that way.

[CAPFLIGHT F-18]

Just like what the heading reads, my cursor disappears sometimes in spot view, and it doesn't tell me where it is. any
help?

It will disappear if you right-click and drag the mouse quickly off-screen or onto another window and release there.
(including F3 or F4 windows, etc.) Such as if you were using the mouse to move the camera. Typically if you wait a
second after dragging, with the right mouse button still pressed in, the cursor will return to the correct spot.(even if it
isn't visible) But most of the time you will be moving and releasing it very quickly once it reaches the side of the
screen,(or maybe accidentally onto a window) and it will cause the cursor to become totally invisible and you must
restart Orbiter. :p I'm not totally sure if this is what is happening to you though. And what do you mean by 'spot
view'?

if u r an FS player, spot view means the outside of the aircraft. external view. thx.

I get this problem as well. Maybe I should just run in full screen. Is there a fix ? Has anyone submitted a bug report ?

Same problem to me. Either I save and quit the mission or just use the option where you use the control button to know where
the cursor is.

I'll stick with save and quit.

Known bug in Orbiter, both in windowed and full screen. So far, there is no resolve.

[DJ Barney]

Is there a bug submission system ? I've never seen it. For that matter, where is the SDK ?

You can submit bugs on the Bug Report section of the main Orbiter forum. Unfortunately the forum is currently offline
due to M6's terrible service. :p If you are talking about the SDK forum, that is on the main Orbiter forum as well. If you
mean the SDK pack, that can be found on the Download section of the Orbiter website.
