Description Travis Newhouse 2003-07-26 19:48:42 UTC 
Version:           1.2.2 (using KDE KDE 3.1.2)
Installed from:    FreeBSD Ports
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 3.2.2 [FreeBSD] 20030205 (release) 
OS:          FreeBSD

After renaming the session either by pressing 'Alt+Ctrl+S' or selecting "Rename Session..." from the context pop-up menu, the mouse pointer disappears when the mouse moves over text region of the Konsole window.  The pointer is still visible when over the scroll bar, toolbar, window title.  And, the pointer is visible if the context pop-up menu is activated by right-clicking in the text region of the window.
Comment 1 Travis Newhouse 2003-07-27 05:02:22 UTC 
I made a two mistakes in the first description of the bug.  Selecting "Rename Session..." 
from the context pop-up menu does not result in the mouse pointer disappearing.  
Additionally, the problem is not a result of renaming the session, but rather open the 
"Rename Session" dialog via the key stroke "Alt+Ctrl+S".  When pressing any key the 
mouse pointer hides (a normal feature when typing in Konsole), and this is true when 
pressing "Alt+Ctrl+S" to rename the session.  However, even if the Cancel button is 
pressed in the dialog, the mouse pointer does return from hiding.  I hope this is clear. 
 
I did discover how to make the mouse pointer appear once again in the text region of 
the session.  If a new session is created by clicking on the "New" button in the toolbar, 
the cursor once again becomes visible in the session's text region.

Can't reproduce with KDE 3.1.3, most likely thanks to autohide cursor fixes in 
kdelibs.
