  • Microsoft Windows 3.0
  • Microsoft Windows 3.0a
This article was previously published under Q62177

SYMPTOMS

Microsoft Paintbrush for Windows shows the current cursor position (in pixel coordinates) in the Cursor Position window (in the upper-right corner) if you choose Cursor Position from the View menu. If Paintbrush is then minimized and restored, the Cursor Position window is no longer displayed. If Paintbrush is closed, it does not save the Cursor Position window either.

WORKAROUND

You can work around the problem by rechoosing Cursor Position from the View menu.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows Paintbrush version 3.0. This problem does not occur in later versions of Windows.
