CursorFX is cool, but I have one peeve....

The feature to switch between CursorFX and the standard cursor (shift-ctrl-v)is the same as the feature to open the move to folder box in email applications. Is this configurable?

When I use the Ctrl-Shift-V combination (outside an email program) the cursor simply disappears. Havne't tried it in an email program to saee if it behaves the same way.

I have the same issue.
Vista Business 32bit

I *can* see the "other" windows cursors though (text bar, hyperlink hand, resize arrows), I jsut can't see the default pointer.

Can you send a dxdiag to [email protected]?

Press and hold the Windows key, press R and type the following into the Run dialog:
dxdiag

Once everything loads, please click the "Save all information" button and attach the output file in the email.

Not there, but CursorXP is ... and I've always had 'Show Pre-release versions' checked.

Tried 'Check application updates', refresh xml data and still not there.

SDC version is 2.49.510 build 162

Switched from US-1 to US-2 ... did the refresh, etc. ... still the same.

One note, which may or may not be pertinent. I have CursorXP installed (not the paid version), but SDC shows it is not installed, despite the fact that I clicked the 'Install' button in SDC back when I installed it originally.

However, rather than the usual SDC type install from within SDC, it took me to Download.com where I downloaded and ran the CursorXP installer.

CursorFX was also installed using an installer (from Brad's link anouncing CursorFX) rather than from within SDC.

It seems CursorFX & CursorXP are two different things in SDC ...
I get CursorXP Plus, but it's shown as CursorXP as well as in the main "misc" program section as well as in the "Register - Misc - Products" with the serial i got when i bought it.

CursorFX is mentionned in "Register - Misc - Products" but i think unless you don't buy it, it won't appear in the program list in misc section.

Though what is the difference between CursorXP and CursorFX ?
Do the subscribers of CursorXP Plus have to re buy it ?  :NOTSURE: 

It's very confusing ...

I've tried to enter my serial of CursorXP Plus for registring CursorFX Plus program in SDC, and of course it doesn't work ...

I did not see any new CursorFX beta in SDC (only 1.90[b].018)even if I bought CursorFX plus.
