Error with "negative offsets" for native cursors

[AdamHarte]

I ran through the basic minimal project setup for Flixel and HaxeUI here: https://haxeui.org/getting-started/haxeui-flixel/

Creating the project from the template like this haxelib run haxeui-core create flixel gives a minimal working project. I then ran it for the Flash target using:

lime test flash

But when I hover over any of the buttons I get a runtime error:

Negative offsets aren't supported for native cursors.
at haxe::Exception$/thrown()
at flixel.input.mouse::FlxMouse/load()
at haxe.ui.backend::ScreenImpl/setCursor()
at haxe.ui.backend::ScreenImpl/checkResetCursor()
at haxe.ui.backend.flixel::MouseHelper$/onMouse()
at haxe.ui.backend.flixel::MouseHelper$/onMouseMove()

Running for other platforms does not seem to cause the error. I have not tried with other templates. I could also not get it to happen when creating a simple OpenFL (non-flixel) project using the openfl haxeui guide.

Environment

• OS: Windows 10
• Haxe: 4.3.6
• Flixel: 5.8.0
• haxeui-core: Latest Git (3ab5f92aedcd128c613582cfb05092f2f9b395a8)
• haxeui-flixel: Latest Git (7d9b1af)

Not sure if these matter, but I will record them just incase

• openfl: 9.4.0
• lime: 8.2.0
• Flex: 4.16.1
• AIR: 51.1.2.1

I assume you are on a mouse device, right? Like a desktop, etc? Or is this a tablet?

can you expand on this?

By "simple OpenFL (non-flixel) project", I just meant that I ran through the OpenFL project setup here: https://haxeui.org/getting-started/haxeui-openfl/ . But I see that I did say I didn't try any other templates. So that is confusing. Sorry about that.
So that is basically running haxelib install haxeui-openfl, and that project worked fine, with no errors.

My end target is actually iPad (using Flash/AIR), but for testing I just use windows desktop with the mouse. So it is on windows where I am seeing this issue.
