OK - After years with this BIAB problem, submitting two posts here (last one 20 months ago) and a call to PG help, all with no success, and virtually no one having the same problem, I now know the cause of the problem. I'm posting this partly as a form of self-congratulation, and partly to see if anyone would be kind enough to try to duplicate it.

So this problem has persisted through many versions of BIAB, two versions of Windows, and two computers. So it's not hardware or system software.

The Problem: Whenever I click anywhere in BIAB, my mouse pointer, after successfully executing the click, instantly appears at the far right of the screen, half way up. I then need to move the pointer back to the work area. Very disconcerting at the least.

The cause - this happens (I know now) ONLY when the Visible Metronome is enabled (Options/Prefs/Count-in/Met./Metronome Options). If it is set to be located top right, the cursor always repositions as described. If set to locate in the center, the cursor moves somewhere else. If the Visible Metronome is set to "No visible metronome" (disabled), the cursor stays put, well behaved.

I'd be grateful if someone would check this out and let me know. Here's a good test.

Start a new File. Enable the Visible Metronome for "Whole Song, Top, 1234, then OK, OK. Double click in measure 1. See if the cursor stays put in measure 1 or relocates to the far right of the screen, half way up.

Disable Visible Metronome. Double click in measure 1. See if cursor stays put.

Thanks.
