Description

A user reported to me that TinyPilot is losing their cursor choice in fullscreen. In normal viewing, they can see a custom cursor, but it reverts back to the default cursor in fullscreen.

To repro
  1. Open the TinyPilot web app in the Brave browser on OS X
  2. Go to View > Cursor > Crosshair
  3. Go to View > Full Screen
Expected

Cursor icon is crosshairs

Actual

Cursor icon is the default cursor


Note: I've attempted to repro on Win10 under both Chrome and Firefox, but I'm unable to reproduce.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the TinyPilot web app using Brave on OS X: select View > Cursor > Crosshair, then View > Full Screen. Start by tracing the frontend handling for cursor selection and fullscreen transitions. Done means the crosshair cursor remains visible after entering fullscreen, while checking that the existing behavior remains unchanged in normal viewing.
