mouse cursor not always what it should be

[dieterdreist]

Since some versions the mousecursor (e.g. add node) is not always indicating the mode. Sometimes (also after a while) it gets a normal arrow-pointer.

Please try to make it reproducable. What needs to be done to get it wrong. Whenever it gets wrong try to reproduce your previous steps as exactly as possible and when you get it reproducable post necessary steps here.

Replying to stoecker:

I'm not completely sure (happens after quite a lot of editing) what leads to this, but happened several times recently (past few days but never before in the past). It might be associated with the select-mode-"plus(+)"-feature. E.g. the add-node-cursor is replaced by the normal arrow after a while.

Reopen when reproducible.

I think I can reproduce something similar to this that might help.

I was just playing around and somehow did it. Then I try the same thing again and was able to reproduce it 9 times out of every 10.

Here's how to do it.

1. Download a small area into JOSM.
2. Hit the "s" button to be able to select nodes.
3. Right click on the screen (doesn't matter where) and almost simultaneously click the left click button once the pan cursor shows up.

Results:
The panning image for the right click of the select mode (s) gets locked and will not go back to the normal select mode mouse cursor unless you select another mode.

It might take a couple of tries to get this to happen, but it does happen. And it was just luck that I discovered this and also noticing this ticket get closed today.

In [3919/josm]:

unify cursor handling, hopefully fix #5381

I noticed this bug again lately. Sorry can not reproduce right now but I did indeed download several small areas. The cursor locks as arrow pointing NW without rectangle. Switching modes usually unlocks it again.

Just happened again. Different machine same system. This time with some plugins installed and an detached image view. I have four layers (one geotagged images, one gpx single track, one data and one imagery layer). Did not download this time and changing modes did not help but changing windows with WM.

gnome3, nvidia-dkms
