    As the title states, the mouse cursor becomes practically invisible in a Citrix session when the cursor mouse’s over apps that are in Dark Mode; Office, Visual Studio, chat windows.  I don’t see any way to control this in WMS.  In my testing, I’m always connecting to the same VM that is running Citrix VDA 1912 CU3 and Windows 10.

    • CWA for Windows has no issue, mouse pointer and cursor stays solid white
    • CWA for Linux also has no issue, mouse pointer stays visible and is kind of a pixelated white/black mix
    • CWA for Linux in ThinOS 9 the cursor goes pitch black when you mouse over something and dark mode and changes from white mouse pointer to black highlightable cursor.

    Example

    This was fixed by editing the ThinOS 9 WMS Cursor Pattern listed under Session Settings>>Citrix Session Settings>>Cursor Pattern using the dotted pattern setting of : aaaa,5555

    since this is still an issue in 9.4 with cwa 23.2.0.10 In the VDI configuration Editor settings this can be fixed by adding a row under citrix ini and adding  the following in this order
    wfclient.ini /add or update /thinwire3.0 / InvertCursorEnabled / True

    This is also detailed on page 117 of the admin guide
