As for the eye icon, it only works before you pick up one Victoria Lily. There's no reason why it shouldn't continue to work (unless it's a bug in the original script).

Ok, forget the eye icon thing. It works. As for the Victoria Lily, it's because it only detects one of the four presented. The Ecorder should detect any one of them. It's real easy to miss the small part of the screen which is the right Victoria Lily.

You are supposed to only use one of the four lilies later on. The one that the ecorder picks up is the one that you'll eventually need. If I'm not mistaken, this is exactly what happens in the original as well, so I don't think this is a bug, rather the way that the game is expected to work at that point.
What makes you think that this is a bug, and that the ecorder should pick all of the four lilies?

Most of the the ecorder's detections are unpickable stuff. It makes no sense to detect one lily over the others just because someone randomly decided that's the lily to detect.
It may be a bug in the original game, but I don't know.

This is a bug with the game scripts, moving to the script bugs page: http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/SCI/Bugs

The bug is in room initialization, so if you have a saved game in this room then the cursor will be fixed when you re-enter.
I hope the past nine years have been kind to the original bug reporter!

I'm that reporter! :-)
Yesterday this fix became part of the new official version, and thus marked the closure of my last remaining gaming bug.
This bug even survived how you moved away from SourceForge and deleted all the usernames there.
Luckily I have patience, so better late than never...
Save game before recording Victoria Lily
