auto hide mouse cursor

[S Pittaway]

i was trying to knock up a plugin to auto hide the mosue cursor, i have it disabaling it when its over xlobby (using cursor.hide).

but all of my misic screens have show milkdrop, so if the mouse is over that it does not get disabled.

ditto for my tv application.

does anyone know how to do this?

my guess is i need to call ::setsystemcursor and delete it, and reload it when the mouse is moved....

Am i miles out?

and if you have already wrote something to do it and i have the code please?


Or i could just use powerstrip to hide it...

I never got it working like i wanted, but mayby u have better luck.

powerstrip as an option to hide the mouse (it gets shown when you move it).

its just that i am a programmer and like to knock my own stuff up where possible.

having said that i am quite happy to nick some code if its available

Sorry, i think i read your original post bit too hastily...

nah, all replies are helpfull

i had a look and it looks like he is deleting the cursor and then reloading it, which was my original question.

i am just to lazy to write it at the moment
