Re: Mouse Pointer Disappearing

I used Windows – Control Panel – Mouse – Pointers and used Customize: Text Select – Browse and clicked on beam_r.cur then Open – Apply – OK. The resulting cursor looks very similiar to the default, but does not vanish in the same way.

Re: update check and version release notes

I believe FH updates are always done by re-installing FH.

In another posting, David Potter asked Ros at CP for a list of fixed issues for each release so far. You can find these here:
