Mouse cursor issue with PyQt 5.10

[farameris]

Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Push Ctrl key on keyboard
2. Put mouse cursor over any variable: mouse cursor changes from "text select" to "link select"
3. Release Ctrl key on keyboard

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The mouse cursor should change back to "text select" after releasing the Ctrl key but doesn't !
Same problem when saving file : "text select" cursor goes to "busy" pointer but doesn't go back to "text select" when the saving action is finished.

Please provide any additional information below

I have to get the mouse cursor out of the editor to get back the normal "text select" cursor.

Thanks for reporting. We'll take a look at this in a future release.

As a note, I was unable to reproduce this on Windows 8.1 with Spyder 3.2.6 and Python 3.6.4, trying many times in different scenarios. Major difference is I was using the standard Qt/PyQt 5.6.2/5.6, while you're using the newer Qt/PyQt 5.10.

Same issue with master release (at least 2 days ago).
With ctrl+S (save the editor). The cursor turns to disk-like and keeps into that state until it moves outside the editor.
PyQt 5.10 as well. Win10.

This has to be an issue with PyQt 5.10 for sure, so we're going to pin pyqt5 to 5.9.2 in our wheels. There has been several reports that things are failing strangely with 5.10.

For now, please downgrade to 5.9.2 manually.

Downgrading to 5.9.2 worked for me ! Thanks !

PyQt-5-5.10.1 is out. Maybe a few bugs are corrected now.

[farameris]

Just tried PyQT-5-5.10.1, the bug about no update of mouse icone is corrected !

[CAM-Gerlach]

I believe there may have been some additional issues besides this, though?

[farameris]

You are right, last com modified !
