#38 Option to hide mouse cursor while keyboard input.

[Anonymous]

It would be nice if teakwindow provides an option to hide the mousecursor when there is keyboardinput, ie typing. Some programs do this also, but my experience is, that most of the time, it just doesn't work.

Should this feature be implemented, maybe make it so that Teakwindow looks at the active window and decides, based on a blacklist, if the mousecursor should be hidden while there is keyboard input.

It would be nice to set a "hide" and "show" delay.

This is surely a nice idea, and sounds quite easy to implement. I'll think about it, but no promises.

This setting is already present in Windows, at least in Windows 7 but I think also in previous versions. Go to Control Panel, Mouse, Pointer Options, Hide pointer while typing.

The setting is there but, at least in Windows XP, it isn't working for me. When you google for it, you'll find out lot's of people have this problem.

Ah, you're right. Same problem on Win7 still. I'm re-opening this and will consider it.
