Description Peter Milne 2010-08-13 13:01:44 UTC 
Version:           2.0.0
OS:                All

Default pointer is a cross-hair.

On using cursor keys to navigate:
PAN LEFT, PAN RIGHT : still a cross-hair : good
UP, DOWN : cursor changes to "Up-Down-Arrow", appropriate for vertical axis pan : good

But:
Press SHIFT_LEFT/SHIFT_RIGHT for X_ZOOM : cursor changes to "Up-Down-Arrow" - NOT GOOD!

The X_ZOOM function still works, but the pointer is unhelpful.

Sometimes a horizontal guide-line appears. This doesn't appear to have any function.

On pressing LEFT/RIGHT for PAN-LEFT, PAN-RIGHT, the cursor remains in the "Up-Down-Arrow" state.

However, moving the mouse pointer does cause the cursor to reset to default "Crosshair".



Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Plot a waveform. Use keyboard cursor keys to navigate.


Expected Results:  
To be consistent, the cursor should change to "Left-Right-Arrow" when 
the X ZOOM IN, X ZOOM OUT functions are active. The cursor should reset 
to "Cross Hair" when any of the PAN functions (no-shift L,R,U,D) are 
invoked.
