Activate roll up behaviour for the windows using gconf: /apps/gwd/mouse_wheel_action = shade 2. Roll up gedit window into window header scrolling up over window titlebar 3. Unroll gedit window by scrolling down over window titlebar After that document editing field loses focus and cursor. Focus can be returned when you click somewhere in the document, but cursor stays invisible and you cannot determine where it is located. Workaround: If you minimize, then restore back gedit window, then cursor reappears and behaves normally.
