Hiding the mouse pointer

[erebus]

Hello all,

I was wondering if is it possible to hide the mouse pointer somehow and show it back again. Any ideas?

Edit: At the moment I use:

MouseMove (@DesktopWidth, @DesktopHeight, 1)

...which is not _exactly_ what I want, since when the busy pointer appears it is a bit visible.

I don't know if this will help you, but if you set the last parameter in MouseMove to 0, it makes the mouse move infinitely fast, e.g.:

MouseMove( x, y, 0)

[Mr.Wizard]

the API call ShowCursor should do this but I can't get it to work in AutoIt yet...

maybe use something like this.

$m=@min
while $m=@min
$x=int(Random(0,@desktopwidth))
$y=int(Random(0,@DesktopHeight))
mousemove($x,$y,0)
sleep(1)
wend
