CrossOver Support - Community Forums

Hi all! I'm still noticing on both CrossOver and CrossOver Preview that my mouse pointer continue to appear even if the game is full screen.
Is it a know issue or does it happens only with few titles?

Mmmm I've tried to take a screenshot bit the mouse pointer was not visible in the screenshot. Maybe next time I will take a photo.

Usually if you change resolution or hit "esc" and go in game menu, after returning to game the mouse pointer disappear for a while.

Also the game loose the mouse if you have universal control. CrossOver should keep the mouse pointer inside, maybe with accessibility or other options that should be requested by the app.

I confirm it is happening in other titles as well. It seems after a while the macOS mouse pointer appear on screen.
The only app I have which could be doing something related is SteerMouse.

I'm also battling this in Deep Rock Galactic.

I've tried to run games without Steam and it seems it happens much more less. I'm reporting this thing to Codeweavers, but they did not have other reports, so I invite you to do the same, maybe we can find the cause.

Thanks. I will gather some stats, and report to Code Weavers as well. So far I've been trying to optimize for FPS, but I do think that when this mouse issue happens it also hurts FPS somehow.

Did you see that there is a wine property for the bottle that allows for mouse locking. I haven't noticed much difference with that, but a comprehensive investigation should include that setting as well.

I had/have the cursor issue in all games. Found a Reddit thread (https://www.reddit.com/r/macgaming/comments/l3pc13/m1_mac_mini_mouse_cursor_showing_up_ingame/) that had part of answer and I found the key "for me". Currently holding for Avowed and Remnant: From The Ashes where it would have broken through by now.

System Preferences:Accessibility: Turn off Shake Mouse Pointer AND Auto-Play Animated Images in same place and that is holding for me Disabling Shake didn't work by itself. I also CMD-Tab multiple times and that holds for a while or used to before the above. I also set Crossover: Wine Configuration: Graphics: to Auto Capture the Mouse in Full Screen Window to On..but that didn't work up today and the two settings above.

Also, I use this in Terminal. It keeps Auto-Hiding docks from intruding. DO NOT USE if you don't understand what it's doing or how to disable it: defaults write com.apple.Dock autohide-delay -float 1000 && killall Dock
