[Feature] Option to disable cursor #15

Open sashahilton00 opened 2 years ago

sashahilton00 commented 2 years ago

It would be great to have the option to disable/hide the cursor, or at least only show it when the mouse is plugged in and moving around. When used for a kiosk, most of the time a cursor is unwanted/unnecessary.

Option to disable the cursor (env var), possibly also the option to not fully disable it, but at least auto hide it after X seconds.

Yes, it looks like something sensible. We will look at it for the next updates.

Thanks a lot for the feedback!

I'm also facing this problem. This is a system cursor, right? Probably no way I can hide it somehow with CSS settings of my page?

I'm looking at this project as an alternative to https://github.com/balenablocks/browser for my kiosk application.

Any eta on removing the cursor?

deregtd commented 2 years ago

Same problem here. I'm planning on trying this approach at some point when my project gets further along: https://community.toradex.com/t/hide-mouse-cursor-apalis-imx8qm/11053/15
