I have the same issue while moving cursor above input control. The cursor flickers between "arrow" and "beam/carriage".

"The cursor flickers between "arrow" and "beam/carriage"."

Exactly. Same switching for me.

This seems to happen on any control where text may be input (eg: input, edit, combo), while hovering over the text-input area only (when the cursor is expected to be a beam). If one hovers over a control's scrollbar/dropdown selector (if present) the cursor correctly shows an arrow.

As a temporary fix, one may try using GUICtrlSetCursor(controlID,cursorID) ; however, note that the chosen cursor will display when hovering over the input area and scrollbar/selector (if present). And this fix doesn't seem to work on combo controls.

I already heard about this way to "fix" it, but in my opinion this has to be a problem on AutoIt. Maybe some Devs could take a look on it. Would be awesome.
