      My mouse pointer/cursor does not display when over a map. It works fine for all other items such as menus.

          @Suty It's a Windows 11 laptop using Chrome browsers. All software and drivers up-to-date. This also happens on Zubie GPS maps (MapBox).

            @jwh2ohouse Also, cursor doesn't show on Edge (Chromium) or on DuckDuckGo. I just tried FireFox for both websites and it does work but always shows a "hand" or "fist" instead of a pointer.

                Just ran into this after updating my Linux distro.

                Issue was that my new bare-bones install didn't have an icon theme, and whatever the fallback is didn't have a grab icon. I could see this by going into the developer console, picking the main leaflet-map div and changing the cursor css proprety to anything but grab (e.g., auto, grabbing, etc.).

                The default icon theme should be /usr/share/icons/default. Typically this will by a symlink to your actual theme or a directory containing an index.theme file in there that says something like

                [Icon Theme]
                Inherits=breeze_cursors
                

                and if you check under /usr/share/icons/breeze_cursors you will find a grab file that provides the required icon. You can also have switched from default by manually specifying a broken icon theme.

                In either case, the solution is just to install a working icon theme.
