Problem Summary

On Linux, when moving the mouse over the SQL query input/editor in Chat2DB, the mouse cursor remains the default arrow cursor instead of changing to the text/I-beam cursor.

The SQL editor itself works normally and text can be entered, but the cursor appearance is incorrect.

Steps to Reproduce

Launch Chat2DB on Ubuntu Linux.
Open a database connection.
Open the SQL query/editor page.
Move the mouse pointer over the SQL input area.
Observe the mouse cursor.

Expected Behavior

The mouse cursor should change to the text/I-beam cursor (I) when hovering over the SQL editor, indicating that the area is editable.

Actual Behavior

The mouse cursor remains the default arrow cursor (↖) even when hovering over the SQL editor.

    Thanks for the clear report. I understand that in Chat2DB Community 5.3.4 on Ubuntu 24.04.2 Desktop, the SQL editor remains usable but shows the default arrow cursor instead of the text/I-beam cursor when hovered.

    The reproduction steps and expected versus actual behavior are complete. The next maintainer step is to reproduce this on the Linux desktop build and inspect the SQL editor's cursor styling or desktop runtime handling.
