Bug 58642 [misc] caret disappears from java editor
Reported: 2004-04-15 09:17:36 | Status: resolved fixed

Steps to reproduce: 1. open a java source file in eclipse 2. move the cursor to a method call 3. press F2 to see quick docs 4. press Esc to make the quick docs window and the cursor from the java editor to disappear Effect: the cursor can nowhere be seen in the java editor but can be moved, type at, etc. If I switch virtual workspaces back and forth, the cursor comes back. Environment: linux gtk2, gnome2.6 with openbox3 and metacity window manager Comment: it happens every time with openbox3. It tend to happen only for the second try using metacity.
