Windows 2013 Mouse Point #45

rheid commented 10 years ago

Sometimes if I connect to Windows 2012 Server the mouse pointer get's lost. It comes back after a lot of movement on the desktop.

As said in another thread, disabling the pointer shadow on the remote desktop usually helps.

This patch: https://github.com/jonnybergdahl/CoRD/downloads fixes mouse-pointer problems as well as a problem with the clipboard.

I've had no issues with Mavericks, but I can't see the mouse in Windows 8 on the MS Surface Pro 2 -- I can't be the first guy to try this. I've enabled and disabled every combination on the Surface mouse control panel. Not sure what is causing the mouse to be hidden?

This needs to be done on the server, not the client.

Agreed that the patch from JonnyBergdahl fixes this issue, with the caveat that the pointer seems to stay as the arrow and hourglass. Since the server code cannot be changed, being proprietary MS, the client MUST be modified to deal with this. Please review and merge to at least have a VISIBLE cursor in 2012 and above servers.
