Thanks Mike. From: Mike Jumper [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 01 February 2021 23:43 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: RDP Black Square cursor QT Creator
The issue you are seeing is a known issue in Chrome under Windows: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=31463 When the mouse cursor is set to a transparent image, Chrome under Windows will instead render that as a completely opaque black square. You are encountering this when you press a key because the application within the remote desktop is hiding the mouse cursor when you use the keyboard.

Visual Studio – OK QT Creator (freeware) – PROBLEM On arrow key, cursor becomes Black square ? My suggestion would be to try various combinations of performance options to see if one or more of them result in the expected behavior. In particular, the Glyph Cache has been the subject of recent discussion, both here and with FreeRDP, in general, as the FreeRDP team considers it unreliable. This causes disconnects in certain versions of Windows, but I wouldn't be shocked if it causes issues like the one you're seeing. We've already introduced a change in the git code to forcibly disable it, but version 1.2 won't include this change, so you can try using the connection parameter to disable it. You might try the same with the other caching options if that doesn't work. -Nick
