ParanoiA Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 I've noticed an annoying problem that just started ever since the SFN logo was updated with the falling snow effect. I didn't realize it had anything to do with it until now. But in the edit box, my cursor starts flickering as I scroll the SFN logo into view and completely disappears once it's fully in view. As soon as I scroll it off the screen, my cursor reappears and blinks normally. It's as if the effect is causing "cursor blinkage overload"... Anybody know how to fix that?

Cap'n Refsmmat Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Hmm... I see that in Firefox 2.0 as well. I'll see if there's a bug in Firefox filed for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPL.Luke Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 yeah looks like a firefox issue, safari doesn't have a problem with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap'n Refsmmat Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Well, it's been fixed in Firefox nightly versions. Can't submit a bug to IE though. I guess it's a similar problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParanoiA Posted December 22, 2006 Author Share Posted December 22, 2006 Well, now that I know what's doing it I can just scroll it off of the screen. For a few weeks there I had no idea and was mildly suspicious of being monitored by IT. But then I noticed it at home too and decided that's just paranoia...

Cap'n Refsmmat Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Does it cause problems when you're typing, or is it just mildly irritating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParanoiA Posted December 22, 2006 Author Share Posted December 22, 2006 Does it cause problems when you're typing, or is it just mildly irritating? Nah, it's just mildly irritating. Although, when the cursor disappears it's hard to find your place as you're typing and editing. But since I know to scroll the logo off the screen, it's no big deal at all. Thanks for checking into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesmudge Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 funny how you have the only two computers out of everyone in this thread to have the problem. Any similarities in the machines? Graphics Refresh problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
