[Bug 779387] Re: displaying and mouse calibration problems

 

I agree - I think it's actually an issue with unity/compiz. I also see
this sometimes in full-screen Firefox. What appears to be happening is
that unity thinks it needs to display a normal window titlebar when in
fact it is using the global menu. The black bar at the top of the window
is the missing titlebar and the mouse appears to be offset by this
amount.

  Thunderbird often doesn't target the correct mouse pointer position. You've to direct the mouse pointer some pixel more up to catch e.g. one button in the main tool bar or scroll through a mail in preview mode.
