Mouse cursor visible in swaylock #333

This might be related to #273, but it seems to appear in a newer version and behaves slightly differently (see below):

I am running sway 1.8.1 with swaylock 1.7.2 on Arch. When locking the screen via swaylock, the mouse cursor remains visible. Once I move the cursor slightly, it vanishes. The same issue does not occur with sway 1.7-6 and swaylock 1.7.2 on Debian stable.

Same behavior here. Sway : 1.8.1-4 Swaylock: 1.7.2-1 Distro: Arch

cnschn commented 11 months ago

Exactly the same behavior for me.

Arch, swaylock 1.7.2-1, swayfx 0.3.2-5 (based on sway 1.8.1)

This might be a sway issue.

Please do not post "me too" comments, especially for unsupported forks.

cnschn commented 10 months ago

Fair point regarding swayfx - I just tested it on Hyprland, swaylock shows the same behavior there.

Exact same behavior on NixOS using Hyprland. Mouse cursor remains visible then vanishes with slight movement. Hyprland : 34.0 Swaylock: 1.7.2 Distro: NixOS

Edit: Sorry if this is a "me too" comment, but figured I'd let you know that this doesn't seem to be unique to Sway, since the same happens with Hyprland.

swaylock hides the cursor when it gets pointer focus, it does not do anything on movement.

The likely compositor bug would be that focus is not being recomputed correctly when the lock surface opens, instead waiting for the usual mouse move check.

Yeah, I don't think there's anything to be done in swaylock here. Please report a bug to your compositor if you still see this happening.
