Losing the Mouse Pointer
In playing Sim City Cities of Tomorrow with the expansion pack when entering the population panel, unless I quickly move the pointer out of the panel, I sometimes lose the pointer. The only way I h...
Hi @bloomlwold - If the mouse cursor disappears when you're in the population panel, you can use the Esc button to back out of the window. Then right-click anywhere on your city and it should bring it back. That's not a great solution, but it's better than signing out.
To fix, go into your mouse cursor settings and set to default settings. It most often happens if you have mouse trails enabled, but different mouse themes can sometimes make it occur, too.
I had this happen to me once, which was strange, since I think they fixed it. I didn't have any changes in my mouse settings, but I changed to a theme and then changed back to default, rebooted my computer, and haven't had the problem any more. You could try a "repair game" if it keeps happening. (right-click on the SimCity icon in Origin, choose Repair Game)
