Hello,

I have been seeing this issue too, but I haven't found time to create a
proper bug report for it.

But now that you have this email, I am forwarding this to the Emacs devel
list too.

The issue occurs because of the new :extend feature for faces to extend
till end of lines.

With that enabled, I have also seen that the cursor "hides" automatically
only at end of lines inside the Org source blocks. i.e within

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(message "hello")X
#+end_src

Above: X is where the cursor would be, but it would not be visible (with
the :extend t added to the org-block face). The cursor would show up again
on doing C-b i.e. bringing it to any column position other than the EOL.

I suggest not to cross-post to 2 mailing lists.

I tried to reproduce this, but couldn't.  The OP says "often", so I
understand the problem is not 100% reproducible and the exact
situations in which it arises are not yet known.

So I suggest to find a reproducible recipe and then report it with
report-emacs-bug, so that the problem could be debugged and solved.

Thanks.

(emacs up to date from git a few minutes ago)

I see this, in a reproducible way, when using hl-line-mode in
combination with visual-line-mode and evil-mode.  In Evil's "normal"
mode, my cursor is a block.  This block disappears when at EOL if the
hl-line face is extended to include the EOL position (by modifying
hl-line-range-function).  I have the following:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (defun esf/get-visual-line-range ()
    (let (b e r)
      (save-excursion
        (beginning-of-visual-line)
        (setq b (point))
        (end-of-visual-line)
        (setq e (point))
        ;; (setq e (+ 1 (point)))
        ;; (beginning-of-line)
        ;; (setq r (point))                  ;real beginning of line
        ;; (if (< r b) (setq b (+ b 1)))     ;adjust to avoid extension backwards
        )
      (cons b e)))
  (setq hl-line-range-function #'esf/get-visual-line-range)
#+end_src

If I uncomment the first commented line, and comment out the one above,
I get the hl-line face extended very nicely to the edge of the window
*but* my cursor disappears if it is past the last text character on the
line.  If I keep the code as it is, the hl-line face only covers the
text, it is not extended, and the cursor is visible.

Aside: the other bits commented out are to deal with the face sometimes
extending backwards onto the previous line; another edge effect...

thanks,
eric

I cannot reproduce any of this, sorry.  Could you please show a step
by step recipe, starting from "emacs -Q", then evaluating your
function, loading hl-line, turning it on, etc. -- whatever needs to be
done to reproduce the problem, with all the details?

Thanks.

Okay, I will try but not today unfortunately.  The possible missing
ingredient was that the buffer was in org mode with org-indent-mode set.
