    Description

      When a VNC client connects to a Qt application started with `<qtappname> -platform vnc` the mouse cursor is initially hidden and shows up only after a while or as soon as I blindly hit an editable field.

      Note that in my case the device where the Qt application is running is a device with a touch panel.

      Tested using the VNC clients:

      • noVNC
      • Ultra VNC
      • Real VNC

       

      As far as I can tell the attached patch seems to solve the issue.
