Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 96297
Mouse pointer remains visible during slide show
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:08:53 UTC
Even though the Mouse pointer visible Option is unchecked in the Slide Show Settings, the mouse pointer remains visible during the slide show. This problem did not occur using Version 2.4.1.
Reproducible. Reassigned. but I also have this problem in 2.4.1.
In 2.4.1, if there is no mouse movement during the slide show, the mouse pointer stays visible for about 8 seconds. During the slide show, if there is mouse movement, the mouse pointer becomes visible after a short pause. The mouse pointer becomes invisible again after about 8 seconds if there is no mouse movement. IMHO, this type of operation is okay, especially if you don't want to use a laser pointer or you use more than one screen for your presentation show.
Also affects Linux seen on 3.2.0
I have this bug on Windows XP, OO 3.0. I think this is a serious issue: With this bug Impress often cannot be used at "important" venues.
Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
