Please see my last mail. This is a regression in Pd 0.50. There's even a discussion on GitHub, but I can't find it anymore :-(. I still have the fix, though. I think I wanted to add more data structure fixes, but then forgot about the whole thing...

I'll start by assuming "impossible to work with" means the functionality works but you can't see the array point behind the vertical double arrow cursor while moving it.

The cursors are set in pd-gui.tcl in the init_for_platform proc. You can changing ::cursor_runmode_thicken to an arrow.

The cursor code in the TCL hasn't changed since at least 9-10 years, so maybe you are seeing a difference between Tk versions.

hi

(windows 10)

just now i encountered a difference in cursor behavior in Pd 50 vs Pd 48 
.

attached is a picture when using the cursor in a graph.

cursor 1: not pointing to a line in the graph - in both Pd's the same

cursor 2: Pd48 pointing to a line (and possibly changing it)

cursor 3: Pd50 idem

cursor 3 is impossible to work with when one wants to change something 
in the graph,

or even using it for reading a position in the graph.

the array-in-datastructures-help can be used to illustrate this.

how to change this?
