Mouse cursor issue

Hi

The mouse cursor was over the text inside the text flow and it was text cursor i.e like a vertical line between two horizontal lines.

I made my text read only by using keyboard shortcuts while keeping the cursor unmoved.

Now when the text is read only and I move the mouse,the cursor does not change back to pointer not even outside the text flow i.e when I roll the mouse cursor over the other components like buttons etc. The cursor as i expected should have changed back to mouse pointer but it didnt, and the solution was  to refresh only.

Looks like a bug to me. I've written up a bug for it.

There's a workaround you can do. Before you set it read-only, do this:

Mouse.cursor = MouseCursor.AUTO;
