It's related to the current window getting out of sync, which is a bug we've been discussing on the pd-dev list. Clicking the titlebar and/or moving the window somehow resets it.

Thanks!
I know about having to *move* the cursor and that has always been that way. But here's what's happening on my machine now:
When I'm in edit mode in one window, go to another window and then come back to the one before (w/o having left edit more), the mouse doesn't show that this window is still in edit, even though I move the mouse. I can edit everything just fine, but now it's just the normal arrow. For it show the "hand" again I have to first lock it and then go back into edit mode…
It's not a big deal, but I just wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing this.

You have to *move* the mouse for the cursor to update. This was the case before 0.48 and there is really no way for it to happen with Tk that I've found.

…also sometimes the mouse pointer doesn't update when switching into Edit Mode (even after moving the mouse), but I can't seem to find an exact way to reproduce it. This hasn't been that way in 0.47
