Screenshot below. The word is highlighted. If I hit backspace to delete or right arrow to undo the highlight nothing happens. It’s frozen.

Could you add a short screen recording showing the steps leading up to the cursor disappearing? The screenshot doesn’t show what triggers it, and I still haven’t been able to reproduce the issue on my end.

Just when I thought it would reproduce, it won’t.
’ll try to remember to record it one day. It happens quite a lot is all I can say. But if you are using massCode all the time, I doubt there’s anything to it.

I use massCode daily, but that doesn’t mean I can reproduce every issue. That’s why I asked for a recording. When it happens again, please capture the steps so we have something concrete to investigate.
