[comp.windows.x] Persistent Grab Cursor

rls@onondaga.steinmetz.ge.com (Rod Sprattling) (05/03/90)

My R3 client program, running on a Sun 3/60 against a vanilla R3
server, calls XGrabPointer with a cursor argument. As expected the
grab cursor is displayed for all pointer locations on the screen, but
after XUngrabPointer is called all windows revert to their pre-grab
cursors - except for the grab window. A solution is simple, but I'm
curious: shouldn't the grab window's pre-grab cursor be reinstalled?

I've been through Section 7.4 of the Xlib tome. Is "unmentioned" the
same as "undefined"? :>
