[Bug 13451] New: Pressing CTRL is unrecognized in Wine when " Show position of pointer when the Control key is pressed" is turned on in Gnome
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13451 Summary: Pressing CTRL is unrecognized in Wine when "Show position of pointer when the Control key is pressed" is turned on in Gnome Product: Wine Version: 1.0-rc1 Platform: Other URL: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine/+bug /231527 OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: scott(a)open-vote.org
From Launchpad: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine/+bug/231527
When the "Show position of pointer when the Control key is pressed" Wine doesn't respond to presses of the CTRL key most of the time. The little notifier that circles the mouse shows up, but the problem will not respond as it should. I would know, because I wrote the program. Ubuntu version 8.04 (though I noticed the problem since as far back as I've been using Ubuntu, which is 7.04), and most every Wine version, including the newest one on Wine's website which is wine-1.0-rc1. The fix I've found is to turn off the feature (in System --> Preferences --> Mouse) under "Locate Pointer" and it will work as expected, but with that feature on it will not. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

The problem, which seems to be a GNOME problem in general. GNOME gives you option to that allows you to easily locate the mouse pointer by pressing CTRL, which shows a small animation around the cursor.
