List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Xref: main.gmane.org gmane.emacs.devel:3940 X-Report-Spam: http://spam.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel:3940 When blink-cursor-mode is disabled, the cursor becomes invisible under the following circumstances: (i) when the cursor is located on certain kinds of "active" (i.e. clickable) fields (e.g., those in customization buffers, in Gnus group buffers, in the recentf "more" buffer -- but not on active fields in a *Help* buffer) and then the mouse pointer is moved over the field; (ii) when the cursor is placed on one of these active fields by a key combination (e.g. `C-x o' where point in the other window is on the active field) and the mouse pointer is located on the field; (iii) when the cursor is placed on an active field by a mouse click on the field. Does this depend on your customizations? It does not fail for me using the latest sources in CVS. Perhaps it is fixed since 21.2.
