mouse cursor disappearing

I use Fusion on a thinkpad laptop. it generally works well, but sometimes the mouse cursor disappears. The cursor is hidden, and if I go to the right places and click it will do things - but it is not visible. I presume that this is some kind of driver bug, but I cannot locate any remedy. Is this a common occurrence?

yes i also experience this... every time i open fusion 360... and do a few actions the mouse disappears into the back and i have to go to another window and come back to locate it only to have it disappear again. I have to completely shut down fusion 360 to use it.

Its incredible how crappy this software is when you think Autodesk currently has 200 developers working on it. Same problem here. Two years ago I thought Autodesk would take over the world. Now I'm not even sure they know how to parallel park.

Just as an update, I'm currently experiencing this as well. Dell laptop using a second display, and my cursor disappears on Fusion only. I couldn't even click in the window - I had to force quit the application to restart.

Same - HP laptop, second display.  

Just disappeared after working fine for several hours.  

Didn't notice cursor issues until today - now I can't save my work or exit the program to restart.  😞

Same.  Just started, no I can't save my work or exit Fusion.  Lousy.  Really.

Note: possible fix?
Noticed I accidently had a second Fusion Application open - Cursor was visible in that. Closed the second window. Cursor reappeared in my active workspace allowing me to save and close program normally.

CTRL-S (CMD-S on Mac) will save your work.

When selecting more than line to apply a fillet, the cursor will erratically disappear.  

While cursor is missing, moving the mouse will hi-light more objects.

The work around has been to:

- move the mouse/cursor outside of the Fusion window

- click on the Mac desktop

- move back to the Fusion window

- click anywhere on the background

Cursor returns and the next line can be selected.

This happens with either mouse on a 27in iMac with macOS Ventura 13.6.5.
