Description Vern Jensen 2011-07-06 16:36:30 UTC 
Procedure to duplicate:
1) Toggle to fullscreen mode.
2) Toggle to windowed mode.
3) Toggle to fullscreen mode a second time.
4) Toggle to windowed mode (again).

This second time you toggle to windowed mode, the mouse cursor will be in the lower-right corner of the screen. Sometimes it's positioned such that it will activate the system screensaver if the user has set the bottom-right corner as the hotcorner. This will happen regardless of where the mouse cursor was prior to going to windowed mode!

This "cursor warping" is done by SDL. Additionally, I'm unable to "fix" this, as SDL_WarpMouseInWindow() seems to have no effect on MacOS X under the current build.

Note that this does not happen the first time you toggle from fullscreen to windowed. It happens the second (and any subsequent) times.

On MacOS X 10.6.7

SDL-1.3.0-5557

This might seem like a minor bug, but it's activating user's screensavers on them when the game leaves fullscreen to bring up a Mac Open File dialog, which is flaky behavior that I'd like to get fixed asap.

I believe this is fixed in the current snapshot:

Please reopen this bug if that isn't the case.

Thanks!
