Cimco Edit Cursor

[Hertz]

Hi guys, I'm wondering if anyone else is having this issue and if they know a fix. Not sure if it's related to my computer or Cimco Edit.

Recently installed 2022, and when opening cimco edit, sometimes the cursor is there and sometimes it's not. What I mean by this is the flashing cursor to show where you are editing. I can do the edit, but it's like as if the flashing cursor is invisible. 

Not sure if I'm explaining this proper but I hope it's clear enough.

I've never had that specific problem with Cimco, but when I 1st went to 2022 months ago there were a lot of problems and just when they fix 1 problem, it seems to create another. I just installed 22.01.45 a couple days ago and so far I haven't seen any issuse and nothing like what you've described.

1st thing is to check for video card drivers. What do you have for a video card?

I have this issue off and on in Cimco 22. Build version is 22.01.30 It seems to happen intermitently and can be frustrating for sure. If you figure out a cause and solution, please post it up.

Thanks!

**Edit** Looks like the update is out. I downloaded it and am going to give it a spin. Hopefully it fixes it.

Yeah an update came out Tues/Wed. I don't recall seeing any mention of a problem like yours in the last few release notes but it may have not warranted mentioning.

Hopefully it'll fix your problem.

I figured out a temporary fix, and that is me just clicking on another window and then coming back to the editor, and it's fine. No idea why it's doing it.

I have a Quadro P1000 with version 31.0.15.1737. I probably should check for an updated driver but so far I had no reason to other than this cursor issue.

It looks like something related to cursor has been fixed in 2022.01.45

Launch Cimco 2022....Top right corner, click on help. At the bottom of the drop down box it has " Download Latest Version". If it is not there, click setup/general and look for the check box that says "hide 'download latest version' Make sure that is unchecked and restart Cimco. It should then appear under the help drop down.
