Description Paul Brown 2023-05-26 10:57:04 UTC 
SUMMARY

When you move the cursor from outside the window of from the menu and toll bar to the main pane showing the star map, the cursor disappears. Left clicking and holding to drag, makes a 4-arrowed directional cursor appear and the regular, simple cursors may appear for a few seconds after dragging, but there doe snot seem to be a pattern to this and the cursors always disappears again.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Use Plasma Wayland
2. Open KStars
3. Move cursor over star map pane

OBSERVED RESULT

The cursor disappears and becomes invisible.

EXPECTED RESULT

That the cursor remain visible.

KStars has no control over this, it's a Wayland and/or Qt issue.
