[Bug 1540759] [NEW] Mouse cursor appears in the wrong position in Gimp

 

Public bug reported:

If you take a look at this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48XLvblnz7A i show there what the
problem is.

But i'll describe it textually here:

What i do:
Open any image in Gimp
Select any tool and try to work with it on the image
The cursor that is applying that tool is not where the mouse cursor of the Operating System is

It should be noted that i'm on a dual monitor machine and that the
"fake" cursor moves slower than the real one. So it maybe related to
that.

I am yet to find a workaround this problem (apart from opening the
window on both screens and hoping to be able to hit the right spot.
