Steps to reproduce:

Actual results:

when moving the mouse pointer over the right edge of the browser window, out and back into the window, the pointer remains in the "horizontal resizing" form (arrow pointing to left and right) instead of being the correct one (pointer with a sandwatch)

It behaves similarly on other window borders.
It does not happen each time, to reproduce, move the pointer in and out of the window several times, slowly.

Expected results:

Pointer shaped as it should.

Also: happens in a fresh profile (after setting browser.spin_cursor_while_busy to true)

Probably related: bug 1901164

Another scenario when this (cursor shape is that for resizing) happens:

  • have a private window opened, displaying a JS alert("some text"), to that the cursor in this window is the hourglass one (just having a page that loads for long time, like the URL in the report, would probably also work)
  • have a normal window above the private one, moved slightly to the left, so part of the private window is visible on the right
  • load any web page in the normal window
  • move the pointer to the right, so it goes on the private window, then back left to the normal window

Result: the mouse pointer stay in the "resize" form over the normal window

Even more: if I then move the pointer to another part of the screen, over another normal FF window, there the pointer is also in the "resizing" form.
It seems the pointer shape is locked across all FF windows.

Didn't get to this in the triage meeting.

FWIW, I wasn't able to get either STR to reproduce on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS with Gnome using the latest nightly.
Hi @gregp, you implemented the patches for 1901164 and 1858801 - would you be able to take a look at this?
