I remember seeing a couple of postings (no longer available here) that said that Epoch got confused with the selected screen, and displayed an outline cursor instead of solid cursor even though the screen was selected. I have been able to get this to happen repeatably as follows. I am running Epoch version 4.2 on a HP 730 running HP-UX 9.0. In the VUE window manager, I have a function key bound to f.raise_lower so that I can push/pop a window with the mouse WITHIN the window's border. I also have the following resources set: Mwm*focusAutoRaise: False Mwm*keyboardFocusPolicy: pointer If I have some other window (say an Xterm window) obscuring an Epoch screen, and I use the function key to lower the Xterm window, then the Epoch screen becomes the active window. However, the cursor within that screen remains an outline cursor until I move the mouse out of the screen, then back into the screen. Looks like Epoch does not recognise this particular way of selecting a screen. -- Mohan.
