WindowBlinds 5 - undocumented bug
One more bug report
Sunday, December 4, 2005 by Mithun Pal | Discussion: WindowBlinds
Here is a screenshot taken at the time of shutting down my PC. Look at the double cursors there.
But, still try this method:
- First of all enable the 'snap to the default button' property of your mouse pointer. To do so, you have to follow the steps: Control Panel → Printers and Other Hardware → Mouse → Pointer Options → select 'snap to' option → OK.
- Now do these steps to shutdown your PC: press 'Windows Button' of your keyboard → press 'u'. Done.
Look at your screen now. There must be two pointers at the same screen and that's the bug I'm talking about.

It's true. So, it's a problem of CursorXP. Thanks for the reply.

ExodusCrow: Thats a bug in explorer. Anything using per pixel transparency will vanish when the MS shutdown screen is open. This includes winamp, your taskbar if you have made it transparent, titlebar borders etc etc.
Explorer grabs the contents of the screen, but it does not pass in the flag for include per pixel information.

This is a side effect of how the CursorXP cursors work. You don't need to do the first step on your PC, it will happen regardless of that I believe. If you use the inbuilt cursor system in XP then this does not happen.
We will see if we can work around this problem with WB.
