Make the mouse pointer disappear?
 

Is there a way to make the mouse pointer disappear after a couple of seconds in the cockpit? I'm getting tired of moving it all the way to the bottom.

Thanks

press F10

Yea, the mouse pointer should disappear automatically when ever mouse is been inactive for 3 seconds and reappear upon moving the mouse.

Good Idea.

some1 posted it as a suggestion?

If we could reassign 'F10' to be the middle mouse button it would help

I like having the mouse pointer visible. I leave it near the speed and alt guages so when I look in that direction (with TrackIR) I get the readings without having to interpret the old guage indicators. This really helps when flying a lot of different planes and you need that info quickly.

I place my mouse in the center, then when I turn my head with track ir, I use it to read the gage's labels for the engine info and heading.

Just change Toggle Independent Mode to whatever you want, in the Camera category in controls options.

I hate the mouse pointer, I would prefer a simple + instead of an arrow then it wouldn't kill the immersion like it does now.

Letting dissappear the pointer after 3 seconds is a good idea imo. Best would be an option "Let mouse pointer dissappear after 3 sec" :)

I just move the mouse in the upper right corner, it is hidden there....dont like to press F10 always....

No, that enables mouse look with the side effect of hiding the pointer, if you have trackIR and nock the mouse it causes the view to move, something I do NOT want. I'd like to be able to hide the pointer without turning on mouse look thanks.

Another problem I find is that I cannot center my Track IR while in game I have to Alt Tab out hit F12 and then Alt Tab back in which sometimes crashes the game or I just have a Black Screen which for I have to end it in Task Manager kind of OT but it would be nice if they could fix it. But it's probably not high on the list.

Reprogram your f12 key in the tir software, something key or joy button what game doesen't use at all.

Try changing the "Center" key in your TrackIR configuration. I use ALT+Space. Never had a problem.

A good Idea:cool:

It would really be nice it the + cursor could be customized with color and size.
