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 is pixelated/fuzzy when enabled #9

Open sambot opened 1 year ago

sambot commented 1 year ago

Using the standalone executable on Windows 11. Functionally, it works great! However the mouse cursor icons are all pixelated. I have bumped the cursor size up a few notches in Accessibility settings. This is likely the culprit. Any workarounds?

Thanks!

I see this as well but I would not care if it rendered a dead mouse on my screen. This is the greatest app ever created, I cant believe it took me this long to find it. The description of its function is as if someone was writing about my lifetime of pain ;)

Sorry to highjack your post and for the dramatics, I just love it ;)

I also experience exactly the same behaviour if the mouse pointer is enlarged in the Adjust mouse & cursor size control panel, the fuzziness appears.

The script also overrides the Windows settings if I select a different scheme in the Pointers tab of the Mouse Properties window, the choice is overridden after clicking Apply.

If the mouse pointer is set to its default size, the behaviour returns to normal.

FYI I've upgraded the script to AutoHotkey v2 and done a bunch of other changes, one of which fixed this pixelation issue with the main cursor when it has a >1 pointer size. Feel free to try that one out

hmmm, one thing I just noticed since doing the update is WinKey + V (to get the clipboard history if you have it turned on) blips out, wont stay in an open state for clip selection... Example:

I have some theories on why that could be happening but I will leave that to the smarter people...

I will say, this would be a deal breaker for me. As much as I love this app, I need the clipboard history to be available.

Thanks, Sean
