            Bug ID: 130339
           Summary: Cursor disappears in Writer
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: thrusce at gmail.com

Description:
I will be typing along in Writer and the cursor will randomly disappear. I can
still click and set its location, or select text with the mouse. But I cannot
see the cursor. If I restart LO it is fine. This has been a "feature" I have
struggled with since the early days of LO. I cannot reproduce it because I do
not notice anything that causes it. A related error is that sometimes the pink
text selection box will also become invisible. It still works but you cannot
see it. These things do not always happen together, but they both go away with
a restart. I am using and have always used the most current version of Ubuntu.
Now I am on the LO Fresh repo. I believe this has happened for me on x386 and
x64, with or without OpenGL. All I remember for sure is that it's been
happening for years. Thanks for your attention to this.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Write
2.Click
3.Unknown

Actual Results:
This is a random error and I have no idea how to reproduce it, even after 15
years of dealing with it.

Expected Results:
I expect the cursor to always be an arrow, a line, or a special cursor for a
special use. Not invisible.


Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce


User Profile Reset: No


OpenGL enabled: Yes
