TOPIC

    Under some screen dimming conditions, it seems the cursor on my PowerBook 3400 does not get redrawn, although it is still active and thus selections can be made. Can you help?

DISCUSSION

    This behavior, which occurred with Mac OS 7.6 and 7.6.1 under certain screen dimming conditions, was corrected in Mac OS 8. Upgrading to Mac OS 8 will resolve the situation.

    Here are several possible workarounds:
    • Don't set the Screen Dimming control in the PowerBook control panel to "never dim".
    • Set both Screen Dimming settings (Battery and Power Adapter)to "never dim".
    • Press the Power button, then click Cancel in the confirmation dialog box.
