Matt, You are not the Lone Ranger here, I loose the cursor 50 times a day in the latest MPLAB editor -(5.20)! To get it back, I mouse on the left most menu bar selector. I like to keep it at the "Stop and Go" lights and the "Feet" for debugging. So I mouse the left icon until that menu bar rotates around again. This reveals the "missing" cursor! Its got to be a BUG! I wish Microchip would put a better editor or allow some other one to hook in to MPLAB. I would like right mouse button editing features!
