Extremely annoying cursor issue in pgadmin4 ver 3

After moving to pgadmin4 ver3 from the prior version I am no longer able to see my cursor when editing text in the query window.

I can highlight text but If I move anywhere within the text line the cursor does not appear. It sometimes will appear at the end of the line but as soon as I left-arrow it disappears again.

I tried everything I can think of to resolve this but to no avail. Even reinstalled from scratch.

I know it’s not a browser issue because I can click on the browser address line and left-arrow and the cursor is visible there. This only happen in pgadmin.

Is anyone else having this issue? And does anyone have a solution for this?

Go to Dashboard in your pgAdmin. At the bottom, in the Server Activity section, under the Sessions Tab, you can see all the Active queries. Now, notice the cross button and the Stop button to the left of each query.

To resolve this, you can simply hold the left mouse button down over the TEXT/TITLE of the floating panel to pick the panel up and move it. If you move the floating panel around the screen a blue box will appear behind the panel to show where the panel will be docked if you drop it.

It is a browser issue, at least in Chrome I could reproduce the disappearing cursor and get it working again.

The browser zoom level is the cause. Changing the zoom level of your browser should resolve. In my case, a zoom level of 90% caused the cursor to disappear as indicated in the question. Any other zoom level works fine.
