High CPU use on Vista Ultimate.

On Vista Ultimate, CPU usage jumps to 30 to 40% as soon as CursorFX is enabled. Sysinternals Process Explorer shows this is mostly due to Tabtip.exe which jumps to 30%. CursorFX itself uses up to 10%. After Ctrl+Shift+V, the combined CPU of these two processes returns to near zero. I have a Wacom tablet so need tabtip.exe.

A Google search came up with an old post saying that CursorXP has the same issue on the Tablet edition of Windows XP.

Another bug:

When used in conjunction with WindowFX3 the cursors are draw behind the WindowFX dropshadows making the cursors to look like they got transparency.

Seems like the latest beta solved the problem with maxivista, thanks guys!

Hi,

Same problem for me. Unable to use CursorFX with Windows Vista Ultimate and Wacom Intuos3.

High CPU usage:




Cursor "blink" all the time with Tablet PC Input Panel:




I hope that you are going to find a solution or a workaround on this problem soon as possible, thanks in advance.

Ok, my bug is,,,,,,,,,,, using Cursor Fx, it sticks on the screen... And yes, I have checked my mouse. I have a tail.. No battiers..   So, I just wanted to report it..

I know you all will fix it... Thanks  

When dragging a file out of WinRAR to a folder, cursor changes to default while dragging. Goes back to defined cursor when released.

CursorFX version 2.00 Preview 1
XP Pro SP2

When using click effects, the effects are being used when working on an image in Paint Shop Pro X when it's own tool cursors are being used. This is causing PSPX to become very sluggish and slow. 8 to 10 seconds to apply 1 pixel of paint. As soon as turn off effects PSPX is fine.


CursorFX Version 2.00 Beta 2
XP Home SP2
2.4 gig Celeron
1 gig ram

Problem not fixed with latest build (beta 3 - january 9, 2008)

- Ticket bumped

Edit: Arfff, my original ticket has been deleted. Wonderful! New ticket ID > JHG-377167.

Due to new problems with beta 3 (cursor showing up under certain items instead of on top) I backed out beta 3 and restored using SDC to a previous beta. SDC however still reports I have beta 3. The sig.bin file has a 1/9/2008 date. CursorFx has a 12/26/2007 date.

Beta 3 buggy here.

Showing under toolbars, menus, some apps.

Dynamic shadow doesn't work, though going from static from dynamic doesn't crash anymore.

Going back to previous beta too.

Switching to windows cursors does't animate them

I use to have some cool animated cursors in my windows scheme, but when I switch from CursorFX to the windows cursors only the first frame is displayed, in other words, animated cursors are static.

Please fix this.
