While reading most not all of the posts here on the linux forum, I tried to switch my runner to proton or any wine above 10.15 and I get errors and when they do work pretty much I get the hover over curser (hand, chat bubble) just disappear. Only the hover over the arrow works just fine. I am using fedora 43 and have no problem until I try to go above wine 10.15 or proton (any). Is there something I need to add or reconfigure. Everyone else talks like I am the odd guy on this issue. Just wondering.

what the ....
first time hearing about that kind of thing.
are you sure its not some weird addons causing it?
could also try if windowed vs fullscreen changes anything...
but yeah.. sounds very strange issue you have.

Reply here please!
Have spent a fair while playing with this, and not had much success. Running KDE Plasma on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. Three screens - RoR on a 4k monitor in the middle, two 1080p monitors either side - one oriented landscape (left), one portrait (right).

I will mention that I am running RoR in a wine prefix that's on a different drive, but I don't feel like that should cause any issues here. Certainly the winecfg seems to be being picked up.

Anyway - I've tried various runners and never really got this setting to work - best I have is that it will hold onto the mouse for a short while before it just seems to...give up, and let the pointer leave the window. Not quite sure why or what triggers it to give up, but...it does. Interestingly it always seems to be escaping on one particular side (the side with a vertical monitor, on the right - notably where the pointer image has to render on the other monitor so it's "pointing" at the very edge of the main monitor) - so, that's interesting. LLM is suggesting wayland display scaling might be to blame, which would make some sense given the variety of monitors I'm using, but I can't spend more time looking into it right now.

I'll keep playing around when I have chance as there's quite a lot of variables that could be causing issues, and I'll update here if I find anything else of note or any way to make it behave more consistently for me.

Ok, thanks for feedback. I personally don't use wayland so its hard for me to test. Im oldschool with my old MATE x11 desktop and dual screens.
my friend on Gnome wayland said that he needs to enable proton-GE wayland thing and then capture the mouse thing from winecfg in order to prevent mouse escaping.

so yeah. It seems this mouse escape thing is still a problem for wayland, but some people can make it work with some configs.
