No cursor in QEMU window

I'm trying to install a VM for the first time. It's a Windows 10 VM and although I eventually got it more or less done, I have a problem with the QEMU window that opens when I click on VNC Remote on the VM dropdown. Whenever I move the cursor over the QEMU window it disappears, so I have to use keyboard input to do the install, which is a pain.

 

I'm running the install from my Windows 10 desktop, and there is nothing attached to the unRAID box in terms of mouse or keyboard, and there's no GPU passthrough. The keyboard input is coming from my desktop keyboard, but my desktop mouse cursor is not showing up. In the gear wheel settings icon in the top right of the QEMU window, there is an option for local cursor, but I'm unable to select that (or any of the other check boxes).

 

How can I get the cursor to show up in the QEMU window?
