Cursor gone after alt-tab
Answered
When I alt-tab to another application and back again, the cursor is gone! I have to click in the editor to be able to start typing again. This is SO annoying.
Is this a bug, or a feature?
I tried disabling the auto-save, but it didn´t help.

Seems to be https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-132221 . Vote/comment for the issue on tracker, describe your situation in details.
You can -- just use the shortcut (Ctrl+C on Windows) -- no selection is required.
I think that issue is only intelliJ, and it is not exactly the same.
It's more like related issue: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-122525 .
PhpStorm is based on the Intellij platform, so IDEA issues are applicable to the PhpStorm.
I am seeing this again in Webstorm on Ubuntu 18.04.
@Swansonmr12 what version do you use?
2018.1.4. My issue is slightly different now that I try again. The issue is when I close(using Esc) one of the utilities (like Ctrl+Shift+n file launcher, or Ctrl+Shift+f Find in Path). Cursor disappears completely.
@Swansonmr12 I can't reproduce that: http://recordit.co/ve8SEpOKi8
Please disable all 3rd party plugins (Settings | Plugins | Show: Custom), restart PhpStorm, and, if the issue persists, record a similar screencast - maybe I'll be able to spot what I was doing wrong. Thank you!
Just crossed my mind - it's probably this one: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-191839
Ah yep, that's the one!

Same problem here. Does not depend on screen resolution or graphics drivers (at least, I am running Jetbrains IDEs on very different hardware and on every computer my cursor disappears after focus is lost.
I have Ubuntu with i3 as window manager.
This was fixed since IDE version 2018.1.5. If you're on a more recent version - please submit a new bug report at https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/newIssue providing IDE logs & describing the issue in details.
Fabian Feitsch, In bspwm issuesI found a solution, but it seems that the wm isn't relevant for solution so maybe can help you too, check: https://github.com/baskerville/bspwm/issues/841#issuecomment-419708176
Joaquin Garmendia This helped, thank you very, very much!!! As this seems to be common issue it would be nice to have it officially documented ...
