Strang cursor behaviour after a drag event...

Hi Jan,

This happens sometimes in the IDE.
Try to add a handler like the following into an appropriate object  
(field, card, etc. depending if you lock the cursor by yourself  
elsewhere):

on mouseMove
   unlock cursor
end mouseMove

Hope this helps.
Best Regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.
