Can you make mouse pointer not appear in flight screens, unless map is up?

Kinda find myself distracted by the pointer sometime and move it off screen in a fight.


Petty as heel I know :)

Sometimes you need the mouse to move the radio buffer around.

I move the radio buffer every time I reinstall AH. After that, I don't move it.

the mouse cursor is a bit map, you can changes its size shapoe and color etc.......

If you dont want it there at all delete erase it.

Somethings you can do yourself. I have mine reduced in size and color so its barely visible. Or could just move it off the screen.

Or do what other sims do ... if the mouse isn't moved for a couple of seconds the pointer disappears. Then if you move the mouse at all it reappears straight away.

If you have a Cougar, you can program a button to do this.  It is quite simple, it puts the cursor off the screen in the lower left corner.  I would be nice if AH had a feature like this.

In WW2OL, the cursor can be turned on and off while playing, and is always ON while choosing fields/missions etc.  After spawning it defaults to OFF and needs to be turned ON, if required....  :)
