[Papyrus-L] Windows XP: Jiggling cursor

[Dave Goldman]

>I am using Windows XP on my laptop and whenever I do a search in 
>Papyrus, the cursor does a crazy dance all over the searched items. 
>How do I counter this?

Here are some additional hints:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This problem will go away if you run Papyrus in full screen mode. You 
can switch between full screen and windowed modes by pressing 
Alt-Enter.

If you prefer to run in windowed mode, then follow these steps:

  (a) Right-click the PAPYRUS icon, choose Properties.
  (b) In the Misc tab, turn on mouse "Exclusive mode", turn off "Fast pasting".
  (c) Click OK.

  (1) Launch PAPYRUS.
  (2) Switch to window, via Alt-Enter.
  (3) From the control menu (upper left corner of window, or Alt-Space),
      choose Properties.
  (4) In the Options tab, turn off "QuickEdit Mode" and "Insert Mode".
  (5) Click OK.
  (6) Choose "Save properties for future windows with same title", and click
      OK.
  (7) Quit PAPYRUS.
  (8) Future launches should show better mouse functioning.

One other hint if all else fails: move the mouse so that the mouse 
cursor is located over the Papyrus pop-up menu that is flickering.
