Build ID: 2000100620 trunk Mac The watch cursor is displayed when taking a screen shot of a subarea of the screen. Reproducible always. Steps to reproduce: 1) When a Mozilla window is active, press command-shift-4 Actual results: The cursor turns into crosshairs and then quickly changes to the watch cursor. Expected results: Expected the cursor to stay as crosshairs until the screen region to capture has been selected. Additional information: It is possible to use the cursor to select an area if the user doesn't get too confused by the appearance of the cursor.

known issue, but hardly a big deal --> future

This happens whenever the Mac goes from Mozilla into a modal state which Mozilla doesn't know about. For example, it also happens in the Force-Quit dialog -- and given the current state of Mozilla, that *is* a big deal. :-)

Another example is when setting the volume in the QuickTime plugin. The volume control popup is another modal state which Mozilla doesn't know about, so you get the watch cursor one second after opening the control.

Two more examples: (1) when performing any drag in a Java applet; (2) when dragging a link to the menu bar (the canonical way of cancelling a drag).
