Description n3rdopolis 2017-12-19 03:28:44 UTC

Hi

It seems that Weston will continue to hide the cursor when the user presses the <super> button when Exposay is enabled, and the cursor is over a window that hides the cursor while typing, such as konsole or vte

This makes using the exposay feature hard to use when wanting to switch to a different window with exposay, and you can't see the cursor


Thanks

That's true, and a patch to make Exposay override the cursor would be nice. It's mostly a demo feature rather than intended for real desktop use at the moment ...
