Summary: Cannot disable cursor blinking in the wine GUI Product: Wine Version: 0.9.36. Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: test AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: zhoujiafan@gmail.com

I have updated the wine to wine-0.9.36 in my Linux Fedora Core5. Currently the cursor is always blinking. For example, the editplus running in wine.

I tried to edit the wine registry as follows:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> CONTROL PANEL -> Desktop -> CursorBlinkRate = -1

And this does not stop the blinking cursor!!!

--- Comment #2 from Juan Lang juan_lang@yahoo.com 2007-10-23 23:07:15 --- I don't think this is a wine bug. I also have FC6, and tried disabling the blinking through System -> Preferences -> Keyboard - no effect.

--- Comment #3 from Jiafan Zhou zhoujiafan@gmail.com 2007-10-24 11:02:01 --- FYI, the state of the cursor blinking is not controlled by FC5 keyboard in System -> Preferences. For gnome and KDE GUI there are own means to disable cursor respectively. But I don't think wine uses any these as wine GUI component, does it?

I am really a newbie to Linux GUI development, so I am not sure which GUI component is used for wine. So if this bug cannot be fixed, I am happy likewise.

--- Comment #4 from Juan Lang juan_lang@yahoo.com 2007-11-02 12:19:02 --- No, you're right, this has nothing to do with system preferences. Question for you: does setting the CursorBlinkRate to -1 disable blinking on Windows?

Still present. It works if win.ini is edited, however.

--- Comment #11 from Juan Lang juan_lang@yahoo.com 2008-08-12 12:37:57 --- Yep. I think the patch was rejected because the right way to fix this is through a .ini file mapping to the registry, but that's unimplemented.

Is this still an issue in wine version 1.6-rc3 or higher or is this to be closed as abandoned ?
