Mouse cursor flickers when hovering Tabs

#1

Hi,

I’m using version 20100815. I noticed that the mouse cursor flickers while hovering an open tab, and even continues to flicker for some seconds after moving it back into the editor window.

Another thing: Is it normal that the text cursors does not blink even when not in distraction free full screen mode?

EDIT: OS is Windows XP SP3

It sounds like your mouse cursor is flicking whenever the window is redrawn. Try switching to OpenGL mode (sublimetext.com/docs/faq#graphics) and see if that fixes it.

re: cursor blinking, it never blinks presently, no.

Hi,

thanks for your answer. I tried OpenGL mode, but that just makes the cursor disappear while hovering any tab. Back in editor window, I have to move it after some seconds to bring it back :unamused:
