A small script written in AutoHotKey that hides the windows mouse cursor when a user starts typing, and shows it again when the user is done.

Cursor not saved in same quality. #7

Open generic-user opened 2 years ago

generic-user commented 2 years ago

Problem

When the pointer is not the standard size, initially set by windows. The cursor is not saved in the same quality as the enlarged cursor. This usually happens when I use large screen resolutions.

What I would like

Would it be possible to alter the image saving/loading algorithm, to also work with enlarged cursors?

Windows setting involved

Thanks

Thanks for making and sharing this. 🎉

It has been a month since your post and there are no replies. It seems nobody is affected by this issue than you and me. I'll try some tweaking, but I'm not on the business, so I can't promise nothihg.

Well, I guess the few people using this script use the standard Windows cursor size. (that's what I do now, as workaround)

I've glanced at the code, but I have absolutely no idea where to start in Autohotkey, so if you could find the time to look at it, it would be awesome. 🚀

Also, the account used to upload this to GitHub hasn't been used since 2014, a thing we can safely say is: this project has been abandoned...

I'm having this issue as well. I use a large monitor that's a bit far away and the default cursor is pretty small.

it shrinks everytime this code is used in win10. works fine in win7

FWIW, I'm having the same issue. I also notice that it's not maintaining the white color I chose for my pointer. Other colors don't work either. Thanks for writing this tool, though!

Same issue. One monitor is 4K and another is 1080p.

FYI this is the same issue as https://github.com/Stefan-Z-Camilleri-zz/Windows-Cursor-Hider/issues/9, where I link to my updated script that solves it
